Bella Thorne and Aaron Eckhart Star in The Action Thriller RUMBLE THROUGH THE DARK
Bella Thorne and Aaron Eckhart star together in an upcoming new action thriller titled Rumble Through the Dark. The project is based on Michael Farris Smith’s novel, The Fighter, and Smith is the one who adapted his novel into a screenplay.
Rumble Through the Dark is set “in the dark landscape of the Mississippi Delta where a bare knuckle cage fighter (Eckhart) seeks to repay his debts to a local mob boss in a final desperate attempt to salvage his family home. Thorne plays a carnival hustler who stumbles upon a murder that ultimately leads to a dark family connection.”
Production on the film has already wrapped and it was directed by Graham Phillips and Parker Phillips. When talking about the casting of Thorne, the directors said in a statement, “Bella is a fearless artist. Watching the chemistry between her and Aaron Eckhart develop throughout the story has been one of the film’s greatest triumphs.”
Thorne shared in a statement of her own, “I look for female characters that really have something to do in the script. I love meat and bones for female characters. There haven’t been enough scripts written in Hollywood that really showcase females in a different light for decades.”
I guess she found that kind of character in this upcoming film. She was attracted to the film because of the strong writing for her character.
