It is western Europe’s tallest building, and a modern staple of the 21st-century London skyline. Now the Shard will take centre stage in a “nail-biting” thriller starring Star Wars’ Daisy Ridley and directed by James Bond veteran Martin Campbell.
The high-wire action-thriller, titled Cleaner, will be “set on the side of the Shard” in present-day London, Deadline reported. It centres on a group of radical activists taking over an energy company’s annual gala at the 310 metre-tall building and seizing hundreds of hostages in order to expose the corruption of the hosts.
