The 33-year-old actor has some exciting movie news that was just announced – he will star in the upcoming movie Not Without Hope.

The movie is based on a real-life boating tragedy and Miles will be playing Schuyler, the lone survivor.

THR reports that Miles‘ character “Schuyler, who along with best friend Will Bleakley and NFL players Marquis Cooper and Corey Smith, set off for in 2009 from Clearwater, Florida for a day trip to their favorite fishing spot 70 miles out in the Gulf of Mexico. However, as a severe storm headed their way, a trapped anchor and a traffic mistake in trying to free it caused the boat to capsize, throwing the four violently into the freezing water. With the U.S. Coast Guard air and sea rescue mission beaten back by the ferocity of the storm, the group had to fight to survive in the ultimate test of teamwork and endurance.”

SPOILER ALERT: “While Bleakley, Cooper and Smith would tragically succumb to hyperthermia, Schuyler was eventually rescued after 46 hours in the 60-degree waters.”

NFL star Russell Wilson and his wife Ciara will be executive producers on the project.
