[COPENHAGEN] Two American security workers have been found dead on the Maersk Alabama, a ship made famous by the Hollywood movie Captain Phillips, an oil and shipping group said on Wednesday.

AP Moller-Maersk said in a statement that the men were found dead in a cabin on board the vessel in the afternoon of Feb 18 in Port of Victoria in the Seychelles.

The Maersk Alabama was targeted by Somali pirates in an attempted hijacking off the east coast of Africa in 2009. The 2013 film Captain Phillips is based on the incident.
