Sam Worthington has several projects he’s attached to while he waits for Jame Cameron to be ready to shoot Avatar 2 & 3, and now Variety says he’s added another one, the indie thriller For The Dogs.
Phillip Noyce (Salt) is set to direct from a screenplay by Oren Moverman (working from Paul Leyden’s earlier draft), based on Kevin Wignall’s novel. It’s about a lone assassin who agrees to help a bright college girl exact revenge on those who mercilessly murdered her parents and younger brother.
The producers plan to look for distributors and funding at the Berlin Film Festival before kicking of shooting later this year.
