Chris Hemsworth and Tiffany Haddish team for Down Under Cover

Thor himself will team with “Girls Trip” star Tiffany Haddish for “Down Under Cover”, a two-hander buddy cop action comedy, reports Deadline.

The film will be at Cannes, and will likely be a hot ticket – as it sounds like a good team-up and script – penned by Peter Hoare. Per Deadline: In “Down Under Cover”, Hemsworth will play a detective who goes undercover to crack a series of baffling casino heists in which the prime suspects are a troupe of Australian male erotic dancers. He’s forced to take the partner no one else will — Haddish’s character, a lone wolf who does things only one way: hers. Together they have to work as an unlikely duo to solve the crime of their careers.

Hemsworth can already bring the Aussie accent to the table, and Haddish is certainly making her name in the goofy comedy scene.

“Down Under Cover” is being produced by Thematic Entertainment, the production company by Hemsworth, John Finemore, James Hoppe and Ben Grayson. Haddish is producing alongside them.
