Tony Sokol Aug 5, 2016
Jennifer Lawrence will bring Joel Edgerton in from the cold in the upcoming thriller, Red Sparrow.
Red Sparrow, the upcoming espionage thriller from The Hunger Games franchise filmmaker Francis Lawrence, has rounded out its lead roles. Academy Award winning actress Jennifer Lawrence will be playing a trained seductress and Joel Edgerton will be taking the male lead.
Lawrence will be playing state intelligence officer Dominika Egorova, who has been coerced into being trained as a 'Sparrow', which is the spy term for seductress. Edgerton will play a young CIA agent who handles the Agency’s most important Russian mole.
Red Sparrow is based on the spy novel by Jason Matthews. The first draft of the screenplay was written by Eric Warren (American Hustle). It was been re-written by Justin Haythe (Revolutionary Road).
It's set in modern-day Russia where Dominika has infiltrated the intelligence community as a CIA double agent.
