After all, what rich family wouldn’t pay for the return of a loved one? Paul’s grandfather, J.

He’s busy. Paul’s father, J. Paul Getty Jr. (Michael Esper), is lost in a daze in London and refuses to answer the phone. Only Paul’s mother, Gail Getty (Hilary Swank), is left to negotiate with the increasingly desperate kidnappers. Unfortunately, she’s broke. Trust charts the teenage grandson’s nightmare ordeal at the hands of kidnappers who cannot understand why nobody seems to want their captive back. The cast also includes Brendan Fraser, Anna Chancellor, Norbert Leo Butz, Charlotte Riley and Luca Marinelli. Trust is created by Simon Beaufoy and executive produced by Danny Boyle, Beaufoy and Christian Colson, with Boyle directing the first three episodes.  The show is produced by FX Productions, Cloud Eight Films, Decibal Films and Snicket Films Limited.”

The 10 episode first installment of Trust tells the story of John Paul Getty III, heir to the Getty oil fortune. It is set in 1973, when the young Getty is kidnapped in Rome and his mafia captors are banking on a multi-million dollar ransom. After all, what rich family wouldn’t pay for the return of a loved one? Trust charts the young man’s nightmare ordeal at the hands of kidnappers who cannot understand why nobody seems to want their captive back. The Italian police think it’s a prank and decline to investigate. Paul’s father is lost in a heroin daze in London and refuses to answer the phone. Paul’s grandfather – possibly the richest man in the world – is marooned in a Tudor mansion in the English countryside surrounded by five mistresses and a pet lion. He’s busy. Only Paul’s mother is left to negotiate with increasingly desperate kidnappers. Problem is, she’s broke.

In 2010, Fraser was seen in Furry Vengeance and Extraordinary Measures. In 2008, he appeared in Journey to the Center of the Earth, the first live-action feature to be filmed entirely in 3D. Fraser is most well-known for his role in the Mummy franchise, including the 1999 smash hit action/horror adventure The Mummy, The Mummy Returns, and Mummy 3: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor. Fraser has been in a string of some of the most successful independent films of the past decade including the Academy-award winning Best Picture Crash; The Quiet American; and Gods and Monsters.
