Chris Pine's VIOLENCE OF ACTION Picked Up By STXFilms
STXfilms has acquired U.S. distribution rights to Chris Pine’s upcoming film project Violence of Action. The action-thriller comes from director Tarik Saleh and it also stars Ben Foster, Gillian Jacobs, Eddie Marsan, Fares Fares, Nina Hoss and Amira Casar.
The story follows James Harper (Pine) who, “after being involuntarily discharged from the Green Berets, joins a paramilitary organization in order to support his family in the only way he knows how. Harper travels to Berlin with his elite team on a black ops mission to investigate a mysterious threat. Barely into his first assignment, he finds himself alone and hunted across Europe, where he must fight to stay alive long enough to get home and uncover the true motives of those who betrayed him.”
Adam Fogelson, Chairman, STXfilms Motion Picture Group said in a statement:
“We’re incredibly impressed by what we’ve seen so far of Violence of Action. Chris gives the kind of unforgettable performance that will resonate with audiences everywhere. It’s an elevated action film that has real franchise potential and we are tremendously excited to be working with Chris, Tarik, and the teams at Thunder Road and 30West.”
The script for the film comes from JP Davis and I’ll be looking forward to checking out the film!
