LOS ANGELES, Dec 22: Actresses Suki Waterhouse, Odessa Young, Hari Nef and Abra are set to star in the thriller “Assassination Nation”.
The story follows four teenage girls in a small suburb who become the focus of unwanted, world-wide media attention after their personal information is leaked by an anonymous hacker, reported Variety.
“Wizard of Lies” director Sam Levinson is helming from his own screenplay.
Foxtail Entertainment co-founders and partners Matthew Malek and Anita Gou along with Phantom Four partners David Goyer and Kevin Turen are producing the project.
“Odessa, Hari, Abra and Suki are great, rising talents who all come from different backgrounds and collectively make up a cast that is young, diverse and powerful – all things we want this film to reflect.
“What attracted both of us to the project was it’s bold depiction of teenagers, not as vapid or distracted but rather engaged and determined to navigate the complexities of this new world. It tackles issues of shaming, mob mentality, vigilantism, and righteousness,” said Gou and Malek.
Principal photography will start in the first quarter of 2017 in Louisiana. (PTI)
