Gregg Champion (The Cowboy Way) is directing 14 HOURS from a screenplay by Danilo Bach (Beverly Hills Cop).

�This true story of how one hospital stood up to almost impossible odds to keep its doors open during a horrifying ordeal is drama at its most gripping,� said Wright. �We�re proud to be working with such fine talent both in front of and behind the camera, and we are thrilled to be partnering once again with Johnson & Johnson as we continue TNT�s tradition of creating memorable, high-quality dramatic television.�

�We are pleased to bring 14 HOURS to TNT as the latest in the JOHNSON & JOHNSON SPOTLIGHT PRESENTATIONSM series," said Andrea Alstrup, vice president, advertising, Johnson & Johnson. "This exciting film tells the dramatic story of people pulling together to resolve their problems and helping others in a time of adversity."

14 HOURS tells the harrowing tale of a hospital in Texas besieged by a monstrous storm, one that threatens both patients and staff. But in a memorable show of community, everyone comes together to ensure that not a single life is lost during the ordeal.
