“Freejack” is a film about a racer named Alex Furlong (Emilio Estevez) who is abducted by means of a time travel device seconds before his fatal accident in the present-day of 1991. A technological team led by Victor Vasendak (Mick Jagger) yanked Alex from his proper time to sell his healthy body to a dying millionaire named Ian McCandless (Anthony Hopkins) who will use him for a mind transfer. Alex escapes only to discover he is in a war-torn future where there are few civil rights. Now he must survive, dodge Vasendak’s goons and repair his broken relationship with his fiancée Julie Redlund (Rene Russo) who is also McCandless’ right hand executive.
Auto racer Alex Furlong is snatched by time travel, a split second before a fatal explosion, by Vasendak's 21st-century team of techies, who plan to sell his healthy body to an ailing rich man at McCandless Corporation, for a mind transfer. He escapes, but has no rights in this nightmare future of violence and sleaze. The story concerns his survival, and his attempt to revive his relationship with his fiancée Julie, now 15 years older and an executive at McCandless. Written by Will Briggs {wbriggs@sirius.uta.edu}
