A random wrong number on his cell phone sends a young man into a
high-stakes race against time to save a woman's life in the action
thriller Cellular, a fast-paced film reminiscent of such edge-of-your-seat
thrill rides as Speed. Academy Award® winner Kim Basinger (The Door in the
Floor, L.A. Confidential) stars as Jessica Martin, a high school science
teacher and mother whose peaceful life is turned upside down when she is
kidnapped from her home by five unknown assailants and taken to a
mysterious location. Fearful for her life and completely in the dark as to
her abductors' motives, Jessica manages to patch together a shattered
telephone and secretly place a call to an unknown number in a last-ditch
attempt to save herself. Ryan (Chris Evans of The Perfect Score and Not
Another Teen Movie), the carefree young man who answers the panicked call,
suddenly finds himself in a race against time.
