Jane Up for the ‘Killshot’

Production Weekly is reporting that Thomas Janes has joined Diane Lane and Mickey Rourke in John Madden’s upcoming big-screen adaptation of Elmore Leonard’s novel Killshot for the Weinstein Co..

The action-thriller follows a woman and her blue-collar husband who become targets for two killers after stumbling upon an extortion plot hatched by the baddies. Carmen (Lane) saw the scam, and now she and Wayne (Jane), her ironworker husband, have to pay. Both killers are out to erase any living evidence. Blackbird (Rourke) kills smart and deadly. Richie kills stupid and crazy. When these two lethal partners take up the chase, a safe place from killing is awfully hard to find.

Filming is scheduled to begin on October 11th in Toronto with an eye on a March 17, 2006 release.

At one point Viggo Mortensen and Justin Timberlake were rumored to be part of the cast as well.
