Rooney Mara will star as Canadian Journalist Amanda Lindhout in a new film being developed by Annapurna Pictures (“Terminator”).
According to Deadline, Megan Ellison optioned the rights to Lindhout’s memoir “A House in the Sky” – which fixes on her 2008 abduction by terrorists in Somali – after “Girl with the Dragon Tattoo” and “Side Effects” star Mara brought it to her attention.
Annapurna would produce alongside Mara.
