Fresh from swinging through the CGI jungles Africa in The Legend Of Tarzan, Alexander Skarsgard has been tapped to star opposite model turned actress, Carla Delavigne (she’s the one that turned into that Egyptian goddess thingy in Suicide Squad, and she can also be seen pulling a stupid face in those Tag Heuer ads) in the thriller, Fever Heart.
Skarsgard (soon to be seen in War On Everyone and TV’s Big Little Lies) will star as a mysterious amnesiac who teams up with a beautiful, quick witted circus sharp shooter (Delavigne) to uncover his lost memories. With a charming and malevolent tracker named Blood Lieberman (this role is still to be cast…is Josh Brolin around?) in violent pursuit, the pair needs to learn to trust each other if they are going to survive.
The film will mark the feature debut of Australian writer/director Ben Briand (winner of the Cannes Young Director Award), who has enjoyed success with his short films, Apricot, Blood Pulls A Gun, and Castor & Pollux, and the soap opera spoof TV movie, Hammer Bay. Aussie powerhouse producer, Michele Bennett (Chopper, Drift) is also on board.
