Christian Bale, Oscar Isaac and The Walk’s Charlotte Le Bon are already all in the cast, but director Terry George isn’t finished filling roles for his new historical drama The Promise. He’s now adding Jean Reno and James Cromwell.
The Hotel Rwanda/Reservation Road director is calling the shots on this one, based on the script he wrote with Robin Swicord. The Promise is set in the dying days of the Ottoman Empire (the 1920s) and explores the relationships between three people: Michael (Isaac), a gifted medical student; Chris (Bale), a renowned American journalist working in Paris; and the beautiful and sophisticated Ana (Le Bon).
Reno is aboard to play a French admiral who faces life-threatening danger and finds himself unable to act, while Cromwell will be an American ambassador who shows a heroic side when challenged. The cameras are rolling now in Spain and Portugal with George shooting through December. It has yet to lock down a release date, but should be in cinemas next year.
Reno has worked on Sean Penn’s latest directorial effort The Last Face and French audiences will see him in the third instalment of comedy franchise Les Visiteurs. Cromwell, last heard in Big Hero 6, is appearing in miniseries The Young Pope with Jude Law, which is in production.
