The movie is based on the story of Anthony Sadler, Alek Skarlatos and Spencer Stone, three Americans travelling in Europe who found themselves on a train from Brussels to Paris, where they thwarted an attempted terrorist attack by overpowering the man armed with an AK-47.

The feature will be adapted from the book 'The 15:17 to Paris: The True Story of a Terrorist, a Train, and Three American Heroes' written by Sadler, Skarlatos, Stone and Jeffrey E. Stern.

Dorothy Blyskal has adapted the book for the film, which will be produced by Eastwood, Tim Moore, Kristina Rivera and Jessica Meier.

Celebs who saved people's lives

These celebrities not only entertained their fans in movies but went above and beyond to show humanity. Here's a list of stars who saved lives of people and proved their worth in real life too.
Salman Khan: He does a remarkable amount of work for the children who are underprivileged and uplift these juveniles for a better standard of living. His organisation Being Human is a registered charitable trust working in the areas of education and healthcare for the underprivileged.

In 2011, Kate Winslet saved a 90 year-old woman from burning in a fire! Winslet was staying at the mansion of Sir Richard Branson on Necker Island in the Caribbean during Hurricane Irene. Bravo act!

Tom Cruise: He witnessed a hit-and-run in 1996. He couldn't find the perpetrator, but he paid the $7,000 bill for the victim's stay in the emergency room.

Sofia Vergara: She helped a woman outside of a Las Vegas night club on New Year's Day 2012. The young woman had collapsed, and Vergara checked her woman's pulse and waited by her side.

Demi Moore: In 2009, a fan sent her a Twitter message that threatened suicide. Instead of ignoring the tweet, the star contacted the police, who were able to locate the source of the message. Once the San Jose PD arrived at the house of the tweeter, they took her in for a psychological evaluation. A nice act!

Rihanna: She uses her celebrity power to save the lives of children in need of bone marrow transplants.

Simon Cowell: During a 2007 audition on "The X Factor," he said to singer Jacqui Gray: "Something happens to your throat when you sing. It is quite raspy. It sounds as if you have someone else in there, like you were choking on something." Heeding Cowell's words, the singer saw a doctor and discovered that she had a lung disease.

During a 2012 polo match with Prince Harry, a rival player was knocked unconscious when he collided with other riders and fell from his horse. The Prince helped the man.

Mila Kunis: She helped save the life of a 50 year-old man who suffered a seizure while working in her house. The actress called the paramedics and stayed at the scene until help arrived.

Jennifer Lawrence: She noticed that a girl had collapsed on the sidewalk near her house. She called 911 and helped the young woman until they arrived.
