Chris Hemsworth to Star in Submarine Thriller Subversion

Chris Hemsworth is headed to the deep below, signing on to star in submarine thriller Subversion for Amazon MGM Studios. THR reports that the MCU star will topline the film, which will be directed by Patrick Vollrath (7500) from a script by Andrew Ferguson.

THR reports that the film has been described as a “Die Hard on a submarine” and will star Hemsworth as “a once-promising Naval commander who is blackmailed by a cartel-like operation into piloting a dangerous submarine carrying illegal cargo across international waters. Thrust into a high-stakes game of cat and mouse, the man must outmaneuver blockades and navigate perilous threats both in and outside of the submarine.”

The film is looking to begin production in the fall in Australia.
