Uma Thurman and Samuel L. Jackson are leading the cast of dark comedy thriller The Kill Room, and Deadline reports that Joe Manganiello (“True Blood”) has also signed on.
Nicol Paone is directing The Kill Room, written by Jonathan Jacobson.
The movie will tell “the story of a hitman (Manganiello), his boss (Jackson), and an art dealer (Thurman) whose money laundering scheme accidentally turns the hitman into an overnight avant-garde sensation forcing Thurman’s character to play the art world against the underworld.”
Producers include Jordan Yale Levine, Jordan Beckerman, and Jon Keeyes for Yale Productions, alongside Anne Clements of Idiot Savant Pictures, Paone, Thurman, Dannielle Thomas and Jason Weinberg from Untitled Entertainment, and William Rosenfeld of Such Content.
Executive producers include Robert Kapp, Scott Levenson, Jason Kringstein, Richard Switzer, Ian Niles, Philip W. Shaltz, Bradley Pilz, Michael Rothstein, Jesse Korman, and Jeffrey Tusi.
