‘Sympathy For The Devil’: First Look At Nicolas Cage & Joel Kinnaman In Psychological Thriller
deadline.comEXCLUSIVE: Ahead of EFM, Capstone Global and Hammerstone Studios have shared a first-look image of Nicolas Cage and Joel Kinnaman in Sympathy for the Devil, the upcoming psychological thriller from Yuval Adler (The Secrets We Keep).
Written by Luke Paradise (the upcoming Lost on a Mountain in Maine), the pic follows “The Driver” (Kinnaman), who finds himself in a high-stakes game of cat and mouse after being forced to drive a mysterious man, “The Passenger” (Cage).
As their white-knuckle ride progresses, it becomes clear that not everything is as it seems. Christian Mercuri’s Capstone Studios is handling world sales on the pic and has reteamed with Alex Lebovici’s Hammerstone Studios to produce alongside Cage’s Saturn Films.
Capstone and Hammerstone previously collaborated on Boy Kills World, an action-thriller starring Bill Skarsgård, currently in post-production. “Fans can expect an adrenaline rush watching these two powerhouse talents go toe-to-toe,” said producer Allan Ungar. “Cage is at the top of his game, and we can’t wait for audiences to see.” Ungar produces alongside Lebovici, Cage, Stuart Manashil, and David Haring.
