Premise

A team of female agents from different espionage backgrounds come together to prevent an organization from initiating a plan that would disrupt the world. They go by the code-name 355 in honor of Agent 355, the first female spy in the American Revolution.[1]

Cast

Production

Jessica Chastain proposed the idea for a female-led spy film in the same spirit as the Mission: Impossible and James Bond series to her Dark Phoenix director Simon Kinberg while in production on that film. The concept was built upon and in May 2018, it was announced that Kinberg would direct the film with Chastain producing, in addition to her starring alongside Marion Cotillard, Penélope Cruz, Fan Bingbing and Lupita Nyong'o. The project was pitched to buyers during the 2018 Cannes Film Festival, with Global Road Entertainment and Amazon Studios bidding for the distribution rights,[2][3] and Universal Pictures ultimately winning the rights for North American distribution with a $20 million plus bid.[4]

In February 2019, Chastain put out a request for suggestions in regards to the casting of male actors.[5] In May 2019, it was announced Sebastian Stan and Édgar Ramírez had joined the cast of the film, with Cotillard dropping out.[6] Diane Kruger was added in June.[7]

Filming began in July 2019, and will shoot between Paris, Morocco and London.[8][9][10] In September 2019, Emilio Insolera joined the cast of the film.[11]

Release

It is scheduled to be released on January 15, 2021.[12]

gollark: Yes, but often you want to delete multiple unglobby files.
gollark: I will never understand why `rm` only takes one argument.
gollark: Or the cool new potatOS equivalent, `exorcise`, with nice features like printing Latin and the ability to delete in bulk.
