Wright directs his Hanna

Submitted by Melissa Molina on November 17, 2009 – 5:59 pmNo Comment

The Soloist and Atonement director Joe Wright has a taste for some action as he signs on to direct Hanna. The script is being penned by Seth Lochhead and David Farr and is under Focus Features. THR has more on the story:

Director-Joe-Wright-001

The project is described as having shades of “La Femme Nikita” and the “Bourne” movies. The story centers on a 14-year-old Eastern European girl who has been raised by her father to be a cold-blooded killing machine. She connects with a French family, forms a friendship with their daughter and goes through the pangs of adolescence. When the girl is dragged back to her father’s world and discovers that she was bred as a killing machine in a CIA prison camp, she must fight her way to a free life.

Currently Joe Wright was in the middle of pre-production on the novel adaptation called Indian Summer until it got put on an indefinite hold. Apparently there were some battles with the budget that went and helped bring the feature on hold.
