Two time Academy Award nominee Jessica Chastain is, according to a story today at The Hollywood Reporter, in talks to join the cast of The Division, Ubisoft Motion Pictures‘ big screen adaptation of the Tom Clancy video game The Division.
Tom Clancy’s The Division was released for the Xbox One, PlayStation 4 and PC in March and enjoyed the game industry’s biggest first-week launch for a new game franchise, generating $330 million globally.
The latter, meanwhile, has Tom Hardy attached to headline with Edge of Tomorrow‘s Doug Liman set to direct.
Released earlier this year, Tom Clancy’s The Division aims to offer a ground-breaking RPG experience that brings the genre into a modern military setting for the first time.
