Actor Jamie Dornan has signed up to star alongside Gal Gadot in international spy thriller “Heart of Stone,” from Netflix and Skydance.
Directed by Tom Harper from a script by Greg Rucka and Allison Schroeder, plot details surrounding the story are being kept under wraps, according to Deadline.
Dornan will appear alongside Gadot, who starred in Netflix’s Red Notice with Ryan Reynolds and Dwayne Johnson. She is also attached to star in Cleopatra from director Kari Skogland.
The Tourist stars involvement in the high-profile project comes amid a wave of acclaim for the actor, who has nabbed Critics Choice and Golden Globe nominations for his turn in “Belfast,” written and directed by Kenneth Branagh about his experiences growing up in Northern Ireland.
The 50 Shades of Grey actor is also nominated for a Screen Actors Guild Award alongside the film’s talented ensemble cast, which boasts Caitríona Balfe, Judi Dench, Jude Hill, Ciarán Hinds and Colin Morgan.
“Heart of Stone” is produced by Skydance’s David Ellison, Dana Goldberg, and Don Granger, along with Mockingbird’s Bonnie Curtis and Julie Lynn and Pilot Wave’s Gadot and Jaron Varsano. Patty Whitcher serves as an executive producer, alongside Harper and Rucka.
Netflix nabbed worldwide rights to the project last January, marking another partnership between the streamer and Skydance, after teaming for “The Old Guard” with Charlize Theron, Ryan Reynolds’ “6 Underground” and the upcoming “The Adam Project” starring Reynolds and directed by Shawn Levy.
Gadot and Netflix have their own strong partnership, with the superstar set to appear in two sequels to “Red Notice,” which has become the streamer’s most-watched movie of all time.
