Emily Ratajkowski Joins Natalie Dormer's Revenge Thriller IN DARKNESS

Model/actress Emily Ratajkowski (Gone Girl, Entourage, We Are Your Friends) has lined up a new movie project, and it will team her with a pair of Game of Thrones alums.

Deadline reports that Ratajkowski has joined the cast of In Darkness, a revenge thriller co-written by and starring Natalie Dormer, who plays Margaery Tyrell on the HBO series, and also starring Ed Skrein, who played Daario Naharis before moving on to the Transporter reboot and the role of the villain in Deadpool. (Nymphomaniac Vol. 1's Stacy Martin also stars.) 

The plot centers on Dormer's character, a blind musician named Sophia who is pulled into the underbelly of London when she hears a murder committed in the apartment overhead. Ratajkowski will play a character named Veronique, described as "the fractured daughter of the antagonist Radic, and is pivotal to Sophia’s quest for revenge."

I like revenge thrillers as much as the next person, but the real reason I'm interested in seeing this is because Dormer co-wrote the screenplay with director Anthony Byrne, and I'm interested to see how the movie turns out on a script level to see if Dormer should be taken seriously as a creative dual threat.

Meanwhile, Ratajkowski will play her first leading role in a 1980s-set romance called Cruise.
