Jeremy Sumpter, Phoebe Tonkin (pictured, Bait 3D) and Sebastian Koch are set to star in the thriller written by Ransom‘s Alexander Ignon.
Take Down follows the spoiled offspring of international billionaires, sent to a tough-love school in the remote wilderness by their parents in the hope of shaping them up. When they are taken hostage and held for a billion dollar ransom by a group of clever and well-armed kidnappers, the kids are forced to try to save themselves.
Gillespie says: “The qualities every director searches for in their actors are talent, charisma and commitment. I’ve been lucky enough to find all three in Jeremy and Phoebe. Mark my words, these are the stars of tomorrow.”
