Swank is Hammer Films’ New Resident

From Underworld, Secretary scribes



Hilary Swank has signed to star in Hammer Films’ The Resident for director Antti J. Jokinen. Shooting begins in May.

According to Variety, Swank will play a doctor who moves into a Brooklyn loft, there she discovers her new landlord is a stalker.

Jokinen, a music video helmer who hails from Finland, is making his feature directing debut from a script he co-wrote with Robert Orr (Underworld: Rise of the Lycans). Erin Cressida Wilson (Secretary) recently turned in a rewrite.

This is Hammer’s second feature production since its resurrection. The British house of horror is also overseeing production on The Wake Wood by David Keating. This latest endeavor is financed by HS Media, the Cyrte Investments-backed parent company of Hammer and Spitfire Pictures.
