We're always on the lookout for mysteries being made into movies, but we missed this report when it was announced last week. Variety among others is reporting that Ken Bruen's 2002 thriller London Boulevard is being adapted by William Monahan (The Departed, Body of Lies). It will also mark Monahan's directorial debut.
Colin Farrell is set to star as an ex-con who tries to go straight and gets work as a handyman for a reclusive, but wealthy, movie actress (played by Kiera Knightley). But it isn't long before his past catches up with him with not unexpected consequences.
Fliming is scheduled to shoot this summer in and around London. A 2010 release date is planned.
