Nicolas Cage Reunites With ‘Con-Air’ Director for Tense WWII Spy Movie

Well, this came out of the blue. Per Deadline, production is officially underway in London on Fortitude, a World War II espionage action-adventure directed by Simon West (Con Air). We'd already be sold on the project just based on that alone, but wait until you hear who's been assembled as part of the ensemble. The cast includes Matthew Goode (The Imitation Game), Ed Skrein (Jurassic World: Rebirth), Jordi Mollà (Mobland), Alice Eve (Star Trek Into Darkness), Michael Sheen (Frost/Nixon), Art Malik (True Lies), Lukas Haas (Inception), Adrian Topol (Franz + Polina), Emilio Sakraya (Sixty Minutes), Paul Anderson (Peaky Blinders), Ben Kingsley(Gandhi), and Nicolas Cage (Con Air). Yes, that Nicolas Cage, back in a war movie. We are seated.
