Colin Firth in talks for Kursk

Colin Firth is in negotiations to join Matthias Schoenaerts in EuropaCorp’s submarine disaster movie “Kursk”.

Thomas Vinterberg is attached to helm from Robert Rodat’s (“Saving Private Ryan”) screenplay based on Robert Moore’s book “A Time to Die”.

According to Variety, “Kursk” tells the true story of “the K-141 Kursk — the pride of the Russian Navy — a nuclear-powered submarine that sank to the bottom of the Barents Sea in August 2000. As the sailors fought for survival aboard the disabled sub, their families desperately battled political obstacles and impossible odds to save them.”
