After an intense few months and a “multi-studio bidding war”, it has been announced that Warner Bros has landed Maude v Maude, starring Angelina Jolie and Halle Berry.
The film, which has been kept under wraps for months, is an action thriller that has been described as a “Bond v Bourne” pic with exciting locations to be announced, according to Deadline.
The Oscar winner leads will not only star in the action-packed film, they will have a hand in producing the movie alongside Berry’s producing partner Holly Jeter via their HalleHolly label.
New Zealand director Roseanne Liang will be at the helm of the film project. Liang directed and co-wrote Shadow in the Cloud, a World War II film featuring Chloë Grace Moretz, which won a People’s Choice Award in 2020.
The script is written by Scott Mosier, whose work on The Grinch and Mallrats has established him as a big name in Hollywood.
