"Hacksaw Ridge" actor Milo Gibson and "Independence Day: Resurgence" actor Gbenga Akinnagbe are in talks to star in the action-thriller "All the Devil's Men." He made his debut in "Hacksaw Ridge," his father Mel Gibson's well-received return to directing.
Milo will play an American war on terror bounty hunter in "All the Devil's Men," Variety reported. He is forced to go to London on a manhunt for a disavowed Central Intelligence Agency operative.
Akinnagbe will play one of Milo's team in "All the Devil's Men." They find themselves locked in a deadly urban tactical combat with their former military comrade and his private army, who are protecting the operative.
"The Veteran" helmer Matthew Hope is directing "All the Devil's Men" from his own script for GFM Films. The producers include "Before The Devil Knows You're Dead" Hannah Leader and Amory Leader. "Devil's Knot" Elizabeth Fowler is also executive producing.
"All the Devil's Men" is the first lead role for Milo. According to The Hollywood Reporter, Milo just recently signed with APA and PR Studio USA. He made his acting debut in his father's "Hacksaw Ridge."
Milo will be seen next in the surfing coming-of-age drama "The Tribes of Palos Verdes," starring Jennifer Garner and Maika Monroe, before taking on his first lead role as a bounty hunter in "All the Devil's Men." He continues to be represented by Primary Wave Entertainment while Akinnagbe is repped by APA and Zero Gravity Management's Mark and Christine Holder.
GFM Films are acting as worldwide sales agents for "All the Devil's Men" with partner Guy Collins, assisting with production financing together with Ben White's U.K.-based White & Co. Brussels-based Daniel Maze is the Belgium co-producer providing local production services and funding through his Belgium-based production service company Dutch Angle.
The filming of "All the Devil's Men" will take place in Brussels and the U.K. in February next year.
