Daisy Ridley has been cast in new action thriller
The 32-year-old actress is set to reunite with her ‘Cleaner’ director Martin Campbell, who previously helped the likes of ‘Casino Royale’ and ‘GoldenEye’.
As reported by Variety, the movie – which has been written by Dan Gordon – follows Major Billie Jean Parker, who has been relieved of duty after suffering civilian casualties in a high stakes mission in the Philippines.
The Marine Corps commander could lose her career, and after visiting her dying father – a former Marine – she goes to dedication ceremony at a school building being named in his honour.
However, Omar Romatas’ vengeful son Bento takes hostages, which forces Billie Jean into action with a series of traps and strikes.
Highland Film Group CEO Arianne Fraser said: “What a thrill to collaborate with a director of Martin Campbell’s pedigree whose eye for big-scale action was on spectacular display in the Bond franchise.
“Daisy Ridley will perfectly embody the multiple facets of a fallen war hero who is forced into combat mode one last time,”
Highland COO Delphine Perrier described Martin as an “ideal director” for such a “complex and electrifying script”.
She added: “It’s fantastic to have Martin and Daisy teaming up again for ‘Dedication’.
“Martin is the ideal director to bring Dan Gordon’s complex and electrifying script to life.
“It’s a riveting story loaded with engaging characters and we look forward to introducing this powerful adventure to our global partners.”
