Brittany Snow, Garrett Hedlund, and Stephen Lang To Star in Crime Thriller BARRON'S COVE
Garrett Hedlund (Mudbound), Stephen Lang (Avatar), Brittany Snow (Pitch Perfect, X), and Hamish Linklater (The Big Short) are set to star in an upcoming crime thriller titled Barron’s Cove.
The movie is described as being a “poignant” movie about the unbreakable bond between fathers and sons, the story follows “a grieving father with a violent past, whose life is shattered by the tragic murder of his young son. Consumed with the need for answers, he kidnaps the child he believes is responsible for his son’s death, igniting a frenzied manhunt fueled by the kidnapped boy’s powerful politician father.”
Well, that sounds like a rough and dark story. The film will be written and directed by Evan Ari Kelman and the film is set to begin filming later this year.
Producers Jason Michael Berman and Will Raynor said in a statement: “We are honored to collaborate with an exceptional ensemble cast, anchored by the extraordinary Garrett Hedlund, who is poised to deliver a breathtaking performance. With a world-class team behind the camera as well, it’s our privilege to announce the feature debut of writer/director Evan Ari Kelman, and to support him in bringing this incredible film to life.”
Producers Jordan Yale Levine and Jordan Beckerman added: “We couldn’t be more excited to join forces with our friends at Mandalay on this engrossing, fast-paced emotional roller coaster of a movie. As fathers to young children ourselves, we were deeply affected by the lead character, Caleb, and his tireless quest to uncover the truth about his son’s tragic fate. With an expertly crafted blend of fast-paced action and heartfelt drama, we are confident this film has all the ingredients to captivate audiences around the globe.”
