Brian De Palma to Helm Crime Thriller with Nikolaj Coster-Waldau and Christina Hendricks
If you are a huge action thriller fan like I am, this news could be very promising for you. Scarface director Brian De Palma will be returning to the director's chair to helm the international crime-thriller Domino by Norwegian writer Petter Skavland (Kon Tiki). Game of Thrones Nikolaj Coster-Waldau and Mad Men's Christina Hendricks are in talks now to star in the movie.
The plot of Domino is explained by The Hollywood Reporter:
"The story follows a Copenhagen police officer (Coster-Waldau) who is seeking justice for his partner's murder by a mysterious man called Imran. He teams up with a fellow cop and his late partner's mistress (Hendricks), to hunt Imran down, but are unwittingly caught in a cat and mouse chase with a duplicitous CIA agent that will take them from Scandinavia to the sun-drenched landscapes of Spain."
I don't know about you guys, but I love me an international thriller. Action and thrills in exotic locations definitely tickle my fancy. Also, De Palma has brought us some of the best movies ever, think Untouchables, Mission Impossible, and Carlito's Way. I can't wait to see if Domino will join the ranks of those. What is your favorite De Palma flick?
