Gina Wilhelm Actress - Mixed Martial Artist To Work with Soderbergh
Although Steven Soderbergh's latest movie "The Informant" still has a week before it opens nationwide, he's already busy on his next project.
He'll be directing "Knockout," a spy thriller that marks the feature film debut of Gina Carano, a mixed martial arts circuit fighter
Soderbergh discovered the fighter on the MMA circuit. The movie is said to be in the James Bond style.
It tells the story of a tough girl from the wrong side of the tracks who has a special set of sills, using them in a more focused, constructive environment.
Carano is tough, but very pretty. However, there are dangers associated with casting a newcomer in a lead role, so Soderbergh plans to surround her with better-known actors.
The script is by Lem Dobbs, who has collaborated with Soderbergh in the past. Shooting is set to begin in January with locations in the US, Turkey, and Ireland.
