Rockwell, Ronan, Oyelowo Join Murder Mystery

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.
