Josh Hutcherson Learns Backstabbing For Beginners In A New Thriller

Josh Hutcherson Learns Backstabbing For Beginners In A New Thriller

Ben Kingsley will be his diplomatic boss

Josh-Hutcherson-Backstabbing

As the American Film Market approaches (it kicks off next month), a whole host of potential films will be jostling for attention and looking for buyers. It helps to have names attached and Backstabbing For Beginners has two: Josh Hutcherson and Ben Kingsley.

Per Fly is directing the thriler, working from a script he wrote with Daniel Pyne. Backstabbing For Beginners casts Hutcherson as Michael, an idealistic young sort who scores a dream job working for the United Nations’ Oil for Food program and delves into the chaotic market of post-Iraq war crude. Discovering that there’s a conspiracy in the trading program that reaches the highest levels, he reaches out to his boss and mentor Pasha (Kingsley) for help, but learns that he might just have put them both at risk.

Fly is aiming to start shooting the film in January and it’ll likely be out sometime in 2016. Hutcherson is part of the veteran cast for the final Hunger Games film, Mockingjay – Part 2, which is out on November 19. Kingsley is in cinemas now in The Walk and will be heard as Bagheera in Jon Favreau’s take on The Jungle Book, which arrives on April 15 next year.
