Rosamund Pike, Daniel Bruhl and Vincent Cassel are in talks to join director Jose Padilha’s “Entebbe”.
“Entebbe” tells the true story of four hijackers — two Palestinian and two German — who diverted a plane to land in Entebbe, Uganda in 1976. Taking the plane hostage, the hijackers demanded the release of dozens of Palestinian and pro-Palestinian prisoners.
According to Deadline, the film will be a “ticking-clock thriller”, following the story from the points of view of the hijackers, hostages, then-Israeli Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin and future PM Shimon Peres.
Greg Burke is writing the script. Working Title’s Tim Bevan and Eric Fellner will produce with Kate Solomon.
