EXCLUSIVE: Jonah Hauer-King is set to join the ensemble of Kathryn Bigelow‘s next film at Netflix. The untitled thriller also stars Idris Elba, Rebecca Ferguson, Jared Harris, Greta Lee, Tracy Letts, Moses Ingram, Anthony Ramos and Gabriel Basso. Bigelow will direct.
Netflix had no comment on the casting.
The film’s title and plot remain under wraps, though sources have told Deadline that it will be set at the White House as a national crisis unfolds. The project marks Bigelow’s first feature since the 2017 thriller Detroit, an awards contender produced and distributed by Annapurna Pictures.
Hauer-King had his big breakout role as Prince Erik in the Disney live-action adaptation of The Little Mermaid. He was most recently seen in the Peacock limited series The Tattooist of Auschwistz and can be seen next in the upcoming season of Doctor Who.
He is repped by CAA and United Agents.
