Christensen & Jackson Play Game of Poker
Source: Variety November 8, 2005

Icon Entertainment International has acquired worldwide rights to Poker Night, a thriller with Hayden Christensen and Samuel L. Jackson attached to star.

Variety says the film centers on a rookie detective (Christensen) who wakes to find himself strapped to a chair in a dim and filthy basement. The cop's faceless abductor is a vicious serial killer who is mercilessly torturing his captive both physically and mentally.

Nick Gillard will direct from a screenplay by Greg Francis. Film is scheduled to begin next year.

Dangermousie's thoughts: as I said to [livejournal.com profile] crumpeteer (who is the one who pointed me towards the article), while normally this isn't my thing (squeamish), I am all up for some hurt-comfort Anakin. Bring it on!

Also, that's the second movie in a row that HC is doing someone who isn't moving (there is that patient movie with Jessica Alba). I guess it's a reaction against having to do all those swordfights. :P And am also glad to see it's likely Samuel L. Jackson will get to avenge that arm :P
