Shakespeare’s play centered on the daughter of the British king Cymbeline, who discovers she has secretly married a man raised in her father’s court, resulting in his banishment from the court.
Described as "Sons of Anarchy" meets Baz Luhrmann's "Romeo + Juliet" the film will trace a battle between dirty cops and a drug dealing biker gang set in a corruption-fueled 21st century America.
Jovovich plays the Queen, wife of Ed Harris playing King Cymbeline.
In the play, the Queen schemes to move her own son from a previous marriage onto the throne at the expense of the true romance between the orphan Posthumus (Penn Badgley) and the King’s daughter Imogen. The role of Imogen has not been cast yet.
Ethan Hawke also stars.
Anthony Katagas will produce.
Production begins on August 19th in New York City
