LONDON — Kate Hudson is set to star in Joe Lynch’s actioner “Everly,” the new project from Adam Ripp and Rob Paris’ Crime Scene Pictures.
Pic, which is being sold by Nick Meyer’s Sierra/Affinity, will be unveiled to buyers at the European Film Market at the Berlin Film Festival next week.
Hudson will star as a down-on-her-luck woman, stuck in her apartment, fending off waves of assassins sent by her ex, a dangerous mob boss.
Pic is based on a concept created by Lynch (“Knights of Badassdom”). Yale Hannon penned the script, which was featured on the Hollywood Black List.
It’s the second picture to come out of Crime Scene and the second time it has launched a pic at Berlinale. Last year, its “Gambit,” starring Colin Firth and Cameron Diaz, was one of the hottest tickets at the EFM, where it quickly sold to a raft of territories.
Anonymous Content’s Luke Rivett is producing “Everly” alongside Ripp and Paris, who are also financing the pic.
Rizal Risjad and Philip Elway exec produce.
Sierra/Affinity will also sell “Wer,” the new horror project from “The Devil Inside” producers, at the EFM.
Hudson is repped by CAA.
