Henry Cavill, Jake Gyllenhaal, and Eiza González to Star in Guy Ritchie's Next Film Project
Director Guy Ritchie just seems to be making one film after another these days! He’s certainly keeping himself busy, and the films that he’s been making are all really good! It’s a shame that they aren’t doing better at the box office, but they really are solid and enjoyable movies worth checking out!
The director has set up his next film, a big-budget untitled action movie that will star Henry Cavill (Man Of Steel), Jake Gyllenhaal (Spider-Man: Far From Home), and Eiza González (Baby Driver). Ritchie has worked with all of these actors in previous collaborations.
There aren’t any story details to share, but the movie is said to be “laced with Ritchie’s trademark humor,” and “will revolve around two extraction specialists who must plan an escape path for a high-level female negotiator.”
This is said to be one of the biggest-budget projects that will be shopped at the Cannes Film Festival. The new project will start filming in Spain this summer. Ritchie wrote the original screenplay, and will also produce alongside partner Ivan Atkinson, and Black Bear International’s John Friedberg.
Ritchie said in a statement: “There’s something special that happens when you collaborate with the same partners regularly: you build a shorthand and a trust that lets everybody do their best work. Jake, Henry and Eiza are all astonishingly talented, committed, and engaging actors. This is going to be an action-packed movie that is both intellectually stimulating and physically exhilarating.”
Ritchie’s most recent film to be released in theaters was The Covenant, starring Gyllenhaal, and the filmmaker just wrapped his WWII movie The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare with Cavill and González.
I tend to enjoy the movies that Guy Ritchie makes, so I’m excited to see that this one ends up being.
