Tom Hiddleston's Everest 🗻Thriller ‘Tenzing’ Lands at Apple.

“Tenzing,” a film about the true story of Sherpa Tenzing Norgay’s 1953 trek to the summit of Mount Everest alongside Edmund Hillary, has been snapped up by Apple Original Films.

Casting is underway for Tenzing while “Loki” star Tom Hiddleston is set to play New Zealand mountaineer Edmund Hillary. On May 29, 1953, Hillary and the Nepalese Sherpa, Tenzing Norgay, set foot on the summit of Mount Everest, the highest point on Earth. They had succeeded where others had failed, and had survived a journey that had taken the lives of great explorers before them.

Willem Dafoe (“Eternity’s Gate”) as English expedition leader Colonel John Hunt. British army officer, mountaineer, and explorer John Hunt was best known for leading the 1953 expedition in which Edmund Hillary and Tenzing Norgay reached the summit of Mount Everest, the highest mountain (29,032 feet [8,849 meters]) in the world. Hunt described the venture in the book The Ascent of Everest (1953).

The film, produced by Oscar-winning producer See-Saw Films (The King’s Speech) is gearing up on Tenzing, about the inspirational life of Sherpa Tenzing Norgay and his summit of Mount Everest in 1953 alongside fellow outsider New Zealander Edmund Hillary, and directed by Jennifer Peedom, is currently in production, with casting still underway for the role of Tenzing Norgay. Jennifer Peedom has a close relationship with the Tenzing family and the Sherpa community following her acclaimed documentary, Sherpa.

Tibetan born Tenzing Norgay, alongside New Zealand mountaineer Edmund Hillary, both outsiders on a British Expedition, defied insurmountable odds to achieve what was once thought impossible, reaching the summit of the world’s tallest mountain, Mount Everest,” reads the logline. After six previous attempts, Tenzing risked everything for one final venture.

The film will tell the story of the British expedition which in 1953 finally conquered the hitherto unconquerable and reached the top-most peak of the highest mountain in the world - Mount Everest. An unforgettable achievement.

Caitríona Balfe is set to join the ensemble of Apple Films. Balfe will play ‘Jill Henderson,’ a friend of Tenzing who helped organise trips up Mount Everest. She was Honorary Secretary of the Himalayan Club between 1951–1955, and in this role she organised the Sherpa teams for several expeditions.. The Himalayan Club is an organisation founded in India in 1928 along the lines of the Alpine Club.

Jill Henderson was a key figure in the story of Tenzing Norgay and the 1953 Everest expedition. While not a direct family member, she played a significant role in encouraging Tenzing to participate in the expedition. But, Jill Henderson did not climb Mount Everest.

The Apple Original Films "Tenzing," is focuses on Tenzing Norgay's life and his summit of Everest with Edmund Hillary. Tom Hiddleston, Willem Dafoe, and the Himalayan cast are expected to bring the Sherpa’s story to life.

Lion writer Luke Davies is behind the screenplay. Producing is Liz Watts, Emile Sherman and Iain Canning for See-Saw Films, alongside Desray Armstrong, Peedom and Davies. (Apple and See-Saw have partnered on five seasons of the series Slow Horses.) Simon Gillis, David Michôd and Norbu Tenzing (son of Tenzing Norgay) will serve as executive producers.

Apple acquired the rights to the project in what was described as a “competitive situation” as Cannes kicked off. It is one of the first major deals to come out of the market.

“Good luck to you, ma’am.”

And with that, he simply strode off toward the open doors of the church, not looking back. Jamie felt such a rush of fury that he would have gone after the man and dragged him back, could he have left Claire’s side. He’d left—just left her, the bastard! Alone, helpless!

“May the devil eat your soul and salt it well first, you whore!”

he shouted in Gàidhlig after the vanished surgeon. Overcome by fright and the sheer rage of helplessness, he dropped to his knees beside his wife and pounded a fist blindly on the ground.

“Did you just . . . call him a . . . whore?”

The whispered words made him open his eyes.

“Sassenach!”

His languages boiled in his mind like stew, and he was mute. The first word to surface through the moil in his mind was the Gàidhlig, though.

“Mo chridhe,”

he said, and breathed for the first time since he’d touched her. Mohawk came next, deep and visceral.

I need you.

And tagging belatedly, English, the one best suited to apology.

“I—I’m sorry.”

James Fraser is an honorable and courageous man.

Granted, he is a Scot and a rebel.

He's a damn fine swordsman.

He knows his horses.

And you and he,you're very much alike.

He's one of the best men I've ever met.
