Winstead Joins Ang Lee’s “Gemini Man”

Mary Elizabeth Winstead has scored the female lead in Ang Lee’s sci-fi thriller “Gemini Man” at Skydance and Paramount Pictures. Filming is slated to begin next month.

Will Smith stars as Henry, an ageing assassin intent on retirement who takes on his ultimate opponent – a clone who is 25 years younger and at the peak of his abilities. Smith will play both roles.

Winstead beat out Tatiana Maslany (“Orphan Black”) for the role and will play an operative who works for the same company as the older Henry and has been ordered to surveil him. She soon teams up with him.

Clive Owen is currently in talks to play one of the villains – the head of the cloning program. Jerry Bruckheimer, David Ellison and Dana Goldberg will produce.

Ang Lee’s “Gemini Man” Begins Filming


Filmmaker Ang Lee has begun shooting the long-delayed thriller “Gemini Man” starring Will Smith.

Smith plays an elite assassin targeted and pursued by a mysterious young operative who seemingly can predict his every move – an operative that’s actually a three decades younger clone of himself.

Mary Elizabeth Winstead, Clive Owen and Benedict Wong co-star in the film which Jerry Bruckheimer and David Ellison are producing. It is targeting an October 4th 2019 release.

The script for Ang Lee’s new film has been floating around for two decades and was once going to be a Tony Scott work, but it’s only now that digital de-ageing technology has reached the point of being convincing enough to use on a major character and sustain it across a feature-length runtime which is required to pull off this story. Will Smith plays an assassin in the twilight of his career who finds his handlers have selected him as a target for their newest recruit – a clone of himself who is around 25 years younger (essentially “Fresh Prince”/”Bad Boys 1”-era Will). Clive Owen, Mary Elizabeth Winstead and Benedict Wong co-star in the Bruckheimer-produced film which was shot in Colombia, Hungary and Georgia and will serve as one of Paramount’s few blockbusters for the year.
