Priyanka Chopra to co-star with Karl Urban in ‘The Bluff’? Deets inside

After serving as an executive producer for ‘To Kill A Tiger’, Priyanka Chopra Jonas is set to star in ‘The Bluff’, directed by Frank E Flowers.

Priyanka announced her new project on Instagram, quoting Mark Twain: “Now and then we had a hope that if we lived and were good, God would permit us to be pirates.”

Hollywood actor Karl Urban is reportedly in talks to join the cast of ‘The Bluff’. Set in the 19th century Caribbean, the film follows a former female pirate (played by Priyanka) who must protect her family when her past catches up with her.

‘The Bluff’ is produced by AGBO Studios and Amazon MGM Studios, directed and co-written by Frank E. Flowers. This will be Priyanka’s second project with The Russo Brothers after starring in their Amazon Original series ‘Citadel’.

Recently, Priyanka became an executive producer for the Oscar-nominated documentary ‘To Kill A Tiger’. She expressed her excitement about joining the team and the global distribution rights acquired by Netflix for the film.

‘To Kill a Tiger’, directed by Nisha Pahuja, tells the story of Ranjit, a poor farmer whose daughter Kiran was a victim of a brutal sexual assault. Despite facing pressure from the village to drop charges against the accused, Ranjit and his wife Jiganti refused. The film is set in Jharkhand, where Priyanka Chopra Jonas was born.

The documentary has won numerous awards, including Best Documentary at the Palm Springs International Film Festival and the Amplify Voices Award at TIFF. It was also nominated for Best Feature Documentary at the Canadian Screen Awards and made the Oscar documentary shortlist.

Priyanka Chopra will also be seen in ‘Heads of State’, alongside John Cena and Idris Elba, and Farhan Akhtar’s ‘Jee Le Zaraa’, alongside Katrina Kaif and Alia Bhatt.
