By Nico Grey \u00b7 Published

Alicia Vikander, James McAvoy and Taron Egerton are going conspiracy-hunting for Armando Iannucci.<\/strong> Deadline reported on Thursday, Oct. 29, that the Veep<\/em> and The Death of Stalin<\/em> creator is writing and directing a new film with the three of them starring, and that the package is heading to the American Film Market (Deadline<\/a>). DiscussingFilm\u2019s post about the casting passed 50,000 views within ten minutes (DiscussingFilm on X<\/a>).<\/p>\n

This is the scene that sold me on Alicia Vikander and James McAvoy as a couple. In Submergence (2017) she walks out of the cold Normandy sea in a tiny black bikini, hair soaked, while McAvoy waits on the rocks. Thirty-six seconds, and now they are reuniting for Iannucci.<\/p>\n

What we know about the Iannucci thriller<\/h2>\n

Not much, and that seems to be the point. Deadline says details \u201care being held close to the vest, other than that Iannucci\u2019s latest is best described as a conspiracy thriller.\u201d It will be the first time any of the three stars has worked with Iannucci (Deadline<\/a>).<\/p>\n

BAFTA winner Kevin Loader, who produced Iannucci\u2019s In the Loop<\/em>, The Death of Stalin<\/em> and The Personal History of David Copperfield<\/em> as well as HBO\u2019s Avenue 5<\/em>, is producing. FilmNation and UTA are handling sales going into AFM. There is no title, plot or release date yet (Deadline<\/a>, Deadline on X<\/a>).<\/p>\n

A Submergence reunion<\/h2>\n

Vikander and McAvoy have done the romance before. In Wim Wenders\u2019 Submergence<\/em> (2017) she played Danielle Flinders, a scientist, and he played James More, and the two fall for each other at a hotel on the Normandy coast. That beach walk in the black bikini is the clip at the top of this page. This time they get Egerton, a conspiracy and Iannucci\u2019s sense of humour.<\/p>\n

Vikander\u2019s busy 2026<\/h2>\n

Deadline notes she recently starred in the Korean sci-fi film Hope<\/em>, which premiered at Cannes, plus The Last Day<\/em> and The Echo Chamber<\/em> (Deadline<\/a>). The Echo Chamber<\/em>, Andrea Pallaoro\u2019s film from Bernardo Bertolucci\u2019s final screenplay, premiered in competition at Venice on Sept. 6, with Vikander as Anne opposite Luca Marinelli and Susan Sarandon (La Biennale<\/a>). She told The Hollywood Reporter she hadn\u2019t watched the final cut before Venice because she wanted to see it with an audience: \u201cTerrifying!\u201d She is also shooting Netflix\u2019s series adaptation of Andr\u00e9 Aciman\u2019s Enigma Variations<\/em> (The Hollywood Reporter<\/a>).<\/p>\n

McAvoy, meanwhile, has his directing debut California Schemin\u2019<\/em> in theaters, and Egerton, an Emmy nominee for Black Bird<\/em>, just got strong reviews at TIFF for Everybody Wants to F*ck Me<\/em> (Deadline<\/a>).<\/p>\n

My take<\/h2>\n

I have been watching Alicia Vikander since A Royal Affair<\/em>, and she is at her best when a director lets her be smart and dangerous at the same time. Iannucci writes women who run rings around powerful men, so put her opposite McAvoy in a paranoid thriller and I\u2019m in. Bring back that Submergence<\/em> chemistry, add a few secrets, and this could be the sexiest film Iannucci has ever made. \u2014 Nico Grey<\/p>\n
