Kiernan Shipka to Star Opposite Dwayne Johnson and Chris Evans in Holiday Movie RED ONE at Amazon Prime
Kiernan Shipka (Mad Men, Chilling Adventures of Sabrina) has joined the cast of the holiday movie Red One at Amazon Prime, in which she will star opposite Dwayne Johnson and Chris Evans. Jake Kasdan (Jumanji franchise) is directing the pic.
The film’s plot and Shipka’s role in it are being kept under wraps. The project is billed as a globe-trotting, four-quadrant action-adventure comedy imagining a whole new universe to explore within the holiday genre. Amazon Studios developed the film treatment from an original story by Seven Bucks Productions’ President of Production Hiram Garcia, which it landed after a competitive bidding war last year.
Seven Bucks’ frequent collaborator Chris Morgan penned the screenplay for Red One, and he previously worked with the company on several Fast & Furious franchise films.
The Amazon Original Movie reunites Kasdan, Johnson, and Seven Bucks Productions following their blockbuster successes with Sony’s Jumanji films. While a release date for Red One has not yet been set, the film will stream on Prime Video in more than 240 countries and territories worldwide. Shipka can next be seen in Matt Smukler’s drama Wildflower, with Alexandra Daddario and Jean Smart, which is making its world premiere at this year’s Toronto Film Festival.
