Denzel Washington, Robert Pattinson, and Daisy Edgar-Jones Team Up for Netflix Heist Thriller HERE COMES THE FLOOD
Netflix is bringing some serious star power to its latest heist film project Here Comes the Flood, with Denzel Washington, Robert Pattinson, and Daisy Edgar-Jones leading the charge.
The film is described as “an unconventional heist flick about a bank guard, a teller, and a master thief in a deadly game of cons and double crosses.” That logline promises a story with plenty of twists and turns.
The project, which was officially unveiled during Netflix’s Upfront presentation, comes from Oscar-nominated filmmaker Fernando Meirelles (City of God, The Two Popes). The script comes from Mr. & Mrs. Smith and X-Men: Days of Future Past writer Simon Kinberg, who’s also producing the film alongside Audrey Chon.
Washington is fresh off Gladiator II and is set to reunite with Spike Lee for Highest 2 Lowest, a crime thriller based on Akira Kurosawa’s High and Low, arriving this August via A24.
Pattinson is starring opposite Jennifer Lawrence in Lynne Ramsay’s Die, My Love, which premieres at Cannes. He’s also in production on Christopher Nolan’s The Odyssey and has The Drama, a new film where he stars opposite Zendaya.
Edgar-Jones most recently starred in Twisters, and next up, she’ll be starring alongside Michelle Williams in A Place in Hell, directed by Fair Play filmmaker Chloe Domont.
There’s no release date yet.
