Netflix is in talks to acquire global rights to the Jared Leto-led crime drama feature “The Outsider”.
Martin Zandvliet (“Land of Mine”) helms the film in which Leto plays a U.S. army deserter who joins the Yakuza while living in post-World War II Japan.
Rory Cochrane and Tadanobu Asano co-star while Andrew Baldwin (“The Take”) wrote the screenplay. Filming is currently underway in Tokyo.
Leto will next appear in “Blade Runner 2049” opposite Harrison Ford and Ryan Gosling.
