Chris Hemsworth has fast become one of the most in demand actors in Hollywood. While he has to fit other movies in between his Marvel commitments, he’s now signed up for Candy Store, from writer/director Stephen Gaghan, according to The Wrap.
The film is about an elite, deep-cover operative (Hemsworth) whose life begins to fall to pieces and must start over from the beginning. Stuck working the beat as a cop in Brooklyn, he discovers that the organisation he was previously working hard to bring down is now operating in his new neighbourhood. He sets out to investigate them once more and may get a shot at redemption in the process.
It’s not known when it might shoot, and it may depend on when it can fit in Hemsworth’s schedule, as he’s got promotion for Rush and Thor 2 coming up and is also attached to star in The Avengers 2 and a sequel to Snow White and the Huntsman.
There are also said to be many more juicy parts in Candy Store, with Brad Pitt and Christoph Waltz’s name having come up in connection with the film, although it isn’t clear if they’re still be looked at.
