BLOOM announced today that Emmy Award winner and Golden Globe nominee Martin Freeman (Black Panther, The Hobbit) will star alongside Diane Kruger (In the Fade, Inglourious Basterds) in Yuval Adler’s espionage-thriller The Operative.
Freeman won an Emmy Award for his current role as Dr. John Watson in Sherlock, BBC’s contemporary adaptation of the Sherlock Holmes detective stories.
The Operative follows the story of Rachel (Kruger), a rogue spy from Israel’s feared national intelligence force Mossad, vanishes without a trace while attending her father’s funeral in London.
The only clue to her whereabouts is a cryptic phone call she places to her former handler Thomas (Freeman), who is then summoned from Germany to Israel by Mossad.
