Two-time Oscar winner Jodie Foster is confirmed to star in Hotel Artemis from writer/director Drew Pearce. Hotel Artemis is set up at The Ink Factory and will mark Pearce’s first feature film as director. Adam Siegel and Marc Platt are on board as producers of the film, which is described as an original crime thriller set in the near future.
“Jodie Foster is an icon, pure and simple,” said writer/director/executive producer Pearce. “She’s an extraordinary artist, and to be working with one of the all-time greats on my first feature as a director is an absolute honor.”
“Casting Jodie Foster is a real coup. She is an extraordinary talent and will bring something very special to the film. We are delighted to welcome her to this exciting production,” stated The Ink Factory’s Stephen Cornwell. “Drew’s vision is unique and we can’t wait to see it brought to life by a stellar cast.”
Producer Platt added, “Jodie and I have enjoyed a long professional and personal relationship that dates back to our days together at Orion where we collaborated on The Silence of the Lambs and her directorial debut, Little Man Tate. She is an accomplished artist in every way, and Adam and I look forward to collaborating with her on Drew’s directorial debut.”
Pearce’s writing credits include Iron Man 3, No Heroics, and Lip Service.
