Deadline has reported that Anthony Mackie and Priyanka Chopra Jonas are attached to star in Ending Things, a hot spec package from Kevin Sullivan that’s currently enticing a number of prospective buyers. Described as being in the same vein as James Cameron’s True Lies starring Arnold Schwarzenegger and Jamie Lee Curtis, Ending Things is an action film revolving around the world of assassins.
Ending Things will center on a hit-woman who wants to out of the assassin business and tells her business partner that she’ll be ending their personal relationship as well. But she comes to realize that she doesn’t want to end that part of their bond and in order to describe the breakup — and their last job together — they must join forces for one last night out. Although Deadline doesn’t specify, one would imagine that Priyanka Chopra Jones will play the hit-woman and Anthony Mackie will play her business partner.
Anthony Mackie was recently seen starring alongside Amy Adams, Gary Oldman, and Julianne Moore in Joe Wright’s The Woman in the Window, which is currently streaming on Netflix. He’s also set to headline the fourth Captain America movie now that Sam Wilson officially took on the shield in The Falcon and the Winter Soldier. Malcolm Spellman, head writer and creator of The Falcon and the Winter Soldier, will pen the script for Captain America 4 alongside Dalan Musson, a staff writer on the Disney+ series. As for Priyanka Chopra Jones, she was most recently seen in The Matrix Resurrections as well as The White Tiger, an adaptation of Aravind Adiga’s novel of the same name which revolves around a poor Indian villager who uses his wit and cunning to escape from poverty.
