, July 16 (UPI) -- Oscar-winning actress Hilary Swank said she is narrating "On Native Soil: The Documentary of the 9/11 Commission Report" to give the victims a voice.
Executive Producer Jeff Hayes and producer/director Linda Ellman announced Swank and fellow Oscar-winner Kevin Costner would narrate the film in a news release. The film will be screened next week for distributors in New York and Los Angeles.
"I was in Lower Manhattan that horrible day," Swank said. "I was drawn to the project by the amazing stories of the 9/11 families and survivors featured in the film, and I am proud that by contributing my voice to the project, I can help their voices to be heard."
Costner said he became involved after seeing a rough cut of the documentary.
"It's honest, it's serious and it's not political," he said. "This film tells stories every American will and should want to know."
The film documents the fight of victims' families to get the U.S. government to investigate the Sept. 11, 2001 terrorist attacks.
