According to Deadline, Josh Hartnett (30 Days of Night) has officially signed on to star opposite Jason Statham in director Guy Ritchie’s forthcoming international spy thriller film titled Five Eyes.
This actually marks Hartnett’s second collaboration with Statham and Richie, who are all working together on MGM’s upcoming action-thriller Wrath of Man.
Five Eyes will be produced by Bill Block for Miramax, which is also fully financing the film.
The film will be directed by Ritchie from a script written by Ivan Atkinson and Marn Davies (The Gentlemen, Wrath of Man), with revisions by Ritchie.
