Dev Patel (The Green Knight) va juca rolul principal in adaptarea cartii Flash Crash: A Trading Savant, a Global Manhunt, and the Most Mysterious Market Crash in History, scrisa de Liam Vaughan, care va aparea in luna mai.
See-Saw Films si New Regency au achizitionat drepturile asupra acesteia, noul film fiind produs de Iain Canning, Emile Sherman si Arnon Milchan; Dev Patel va fi producator executiv, alaturi de Simon Gillis, Yariv Milchan si Michael Schaefer.
Jonathan Perera va scrie scenariul filmului, care il are in centru pe Navinder Singh Sarao; acesta a fost un outsider care, in 2010, a gasit o cale sa invinga bursa de valori si sa castige milioane $, locuind in casa parintilor sai din afara Londrei.
“Navinder Sarao’s story struck us deeply. He’s an unlikely but also complex hero who exposed the manipulations at the heart of the global financial system. We’re so pleased to be bringing it to life with our friends at New Regency, and to continue our relationship with Dev Patel after the success of ‘Lion.” au declarat Canning si Sherman.
