Brad Anderson ("Transiberian") is to direct
Bold Films' thriller "Jack," about a serial killer with amnesia.
Affinity Intl., the joint sales division of Bold Films'
and OddLot Entertainment, is handling international sales at Cannes.
Bold Films' Michel Litvak and David Lancaster will
produce with Alexandra Milchan and Marc Sternberg. Exec producer is Bold's Gary
Michael Walters. Lensing is set to begin Aug. 30.
Storyline revolves around what happens when the amnesiac
falls in love with a doctor. As the killer's memories begin to surface, he must
decide whether to make a clean start or embrace the killer within.
" 'Jack' is an incredibly commercial thriller,
laced with tension and suspense, so it's important to have the right director
to bring those aspects to life. Brad Anderson has a unique psychological
intensity that will make for a memorable theatrical experience,"
Affinity's Brian O'Shea said.
