MUMBAI: A drama directed by Michael Winterbottom will soon see Kate Beckinsale be a part of the crew alongside Daniel Bruhl and Cara Delevingne.

Scripted by Paul Viragh, the film is based on the book ‘Angel Face’ by Barbie Nadeau with a plot loosely based on Amanda Knox. Amanda Knox was an American woman who was convicted to killing a mate along with her boyfriend in Italy and served four years in prison before the conviction was overturned.

Beckinsale will play a journalist in the movie while Delevingne is playing a suspect and Bruhl is a documentary film maker.

The film will start production in Italy, backed by BBC films and produced by Melissa Parmenter.
