Jamie Morgan has a large, heart-shaped birthmark on his face, making him feel unsightly and lonely. He lives in the inner-city, an urban area plagued by a terrifying gang culture whose random violence convinces Jamie that the world is both meaningless and ugly. But then Jamie meets someone who explains everything. The world is not random. It’s far from chaotic. There is a secret meaning behind everything. Once Jamie accepts this new meaning the world reveals itself a thing of great beauty. And that’s when his real nightmare starts…

It was also reported in IMDB’s boards the following quote:

I just saw HEARTLESS at a private preview screening in London… it’s by far his best film and best performance. We were made to sign a piece of paper saying we wouldn’t say anything until after the end of August. But I can tell you that I’m a new fan of Sturgess and I will eat my hat if this guy doesn’t get awards for this movie.

It just makes us really eager to see Jim’s new project, doesn’t it?

Wood says, “It’s a year commitment… I did the workshop with Jim Sturgess, but he’s not sure if he can make that year commitment but we’re trying to get him to do it. I want him to do it so bad.”

And the actress insists that “Spider-Man: The Musical” won’t be the joke some critics think it will be: “They’re taking stuff from the first and second films and some stuff from the comic book and how Spider-Man came to be so there’s gonna be a new villain. When you first hear the title, ‘Spider-Man, The Musical,’ you think, ‘Oh what’s that gonna be like?’ The deal was that a man would never sing in spandex on stage, so, rest assured, Spider-Man will never sing in tights, only as Peter Parker. Only Julie Taymor can bring it to that place. She’s bringing it to the next level like she did with ‘The Lion King.’ There’s all new flying technology. I learned all the songs by Bono and The Edge. I didn’t know how they were going to write for the stage but I think it’s the best work they’ve done.”
