Elisabeth Shue has signed on to star in DreamWorks
Dreamer, according to the Hollywood Reporter.
The project, helmed by John Gatins, follows the story of a Kentucky horse trainer and his daughter, who rescue a horse with a broken leg. The two then help nurse the animal back to health and take it to race in the Breeders' Cup.
Shue will play the mother in the family. Kris Kristofferson and Freddy Rodriguez also star. Shooting starts this month.
