Viola Davis has become attached to star in Steve McQueen’s (“12 Years a Slave”) upcoming heist thriller “Widows” for New Regency.
“Gone Girl” screenwriter and novelist Gillian Flynn will write the script with McQueen, based on the 1983 British miniseries about a caper gone wrong. According to Variety, the story follows four armed robbers who get killed in a failed heist attempt, leaving their widows to finish the job.
McQueen will also produce with Iain Canning and Emile Sherman of See-Saw Films.
