Actors Priyanka Chopra and Anthony Mackie`s upcoming action thriller `Ending Things` has been picked up by Amazon Studios. As per Deadline, the upcoming film was acquired by the studio after a round of competitive bidding.
Kevin Sullivan will write and direct the movie, which is said to be similar to James Cameron`s 1994 action-comedy `True Lies`. The storyline of the movie revolves around a hit-woman who wants out of the assassin business and tells her "business" partner that she`s ending their personal relationship as well. But she comes to realise she doesn`t want to end that part of their bond. In order to survive the breakup - and their last job together - they must join forces for one last night out.
Producing deals are still being worked out. Davis Entertainment`s Jeremy Stein and Lit Entertainment will produce with Mackie`s Make It With Gravy Productions and Inspire Entertainment`s Jason Spire. Chopra Jonas will serve as an executive producer through her Purple Pebble Pictures banner.
`Ending Things` will mark Priyanka`s first project with Mackie. Priyanka was last seen in the supporting role of Sati in `The Matrix Resurrections`, the fourth film in the sci-fi franchise.
Currently, she is awaiting the release of `Text For You`. She recently wrapped the shoot for her Amazon series `Citadel`, a much-anticipated TV series that comes from the Russo Brothers, the directors of MCU movies like `Avengers: Endgame`.
She will also feature in an adaptation of Shilpi Somaya Gowda`s novel `The Secret Daughter`, in which she will co-star with Sienna Miller. Meanwhile, Mackie is gearing up for his directorial debut `Spark`, featuring `King Richard` star Saniyya Sidney. He recently wrapped `Desert Warrior`, which also stars Ben Kingsley, Sharlto Copley, and Aiysha Hart. Mackie is also set to play Captain America in the fourth movie in the `Marvel` franchise.
