Kathryn Bigelow May Direct Another Film Before 'Triple Frontier'« FirstShowing.net

We've just recently confirmed that Tom Hankswill indeed starin the next film from Academy Award winning directorKathryn Bigelowwhether it's calledSleeping Dogs,Triple Frontieror something completely different. However, that project isn't slated to start production until fall of 2011, andVarietysays Bigelow andThe Hurt LockerwriterMark Boalare looking to get another international thriller off the ground before then. Though details are sparse, it will apparently be timely and revolve around certainblack ops. However,Call of Dutyfans shouldn't get excited as the film is said to be based on atrue storythat has"appeared in printed form."

The project is currently being shopped around to studios and if the Oscar winning team of Boal and Bigelow is behind it, you can bet plenty of studios will be taking the bait. It will be a low budget, indie project not unlikeThe Hurt Locker. Though it might seem like this will get in the way ofTriple Frontier/Sleeping Dogs, apparently this project will actually give Boal and Bigelow more time to figure out scheduling of potential cast members. Since most of the names mentioned as potential involvement have full future slates (Johnny Depp, Will Smithand more), this may make their participation slightly more likely. We'll do our best to keep you posted.Interested?
