Saoirse Ronan, Sam Rockwell and David Oyelowo have signed on to star in an untitled murder mystery thriller at Searchlight Pictures.
The story is set in 1950s London where a desperate Hollywood film producer sets out to turn a popular West End play into a film.
When members of the production are murdered, world-weary Inspector Stoppard (Rockwell) and overzealous rookie Constable Stalker (Ronan) find themselves in the midst of a puzzling whodunit within London’s glamorous Theatreland and sordid underground.
Tom George (“This Country””) directs from a script by Mark Chappell while Damian Jones will produce. A production start date has yet to be set.
