Actors Forest Whitaker and Vince Vaughn are all set to star in the post-apartheid drama “The Archbishop and the Antichrist”.
Based on the play of the same name by Michael Ashton, the film is a fictionalized account of Archbishop Desmond Tutu’s meetings with Piet Blomfield, an assassin who wants redemption for the killing he has committed while he serves a life sentence in prison in post-apartheid South Africa, reported Variety.
“The Killing Fields” helmer Roland Joffe will direct the project from a screenplay he co-wrote with Ashton. The project that has been in development for several years, with Whitaker attached, will start shooting early next year. 13 Films is handling international rights and will introduce the project to buyers at the American Film Market.
“Forest Whitaker brings a great sense of depth and power to all his performances and he is the perfect match for Tutu’s complex character. “Vince Vaughn continues to prove his wide-ranging acting skills following his more dramatic roles in ‘Into the Wild’ and the upcoming ‘Hacksaw Ridge’,” said Tannaz Anisi, president of 13 Films.
