Richard Gere in the American remake of The Bureau
The 74-year-old Pretty Woman star joins Michael Fassbender and Jeffrey Wright in The Agency.
Impressive casting for the American version of Bureau of Legends. Richard Gere has just signed on to star in the spy thriller The Agencyadapted from the French series by Eric Rochant.
He will play the role of Bosko, considered to be “the head of the CIA station in London,”“He has a rich background after serving as an undercover agent for 8 years”teases the official description. A character who doesn’t really seem to correspond to a French counterpart of the Bureau des Légendes.
“Richard Gere is in a class of his own, adored by generations of fans around the world for his exceptional ability to infuse depth and authenticity into every role he plays. We are thrilled to welcome him to our extraordinary cast that already includes Michael Fassbender And Jeffrey Wright“ rejoices the co-CEO of Paramount Global.
In The AgencyFassbender will play the “Martian”, described as “A secret CIA agent ordered to abandon his life undercover and return to the CIA station in London. When the love he left behind reappears, romance is rekindled. His career, his true identity, and his mission clash with his heart; throwing them both into a deadly game of international intrigue and espionage.”.” It will be remembered that the first seasons of the Bureau of Legends were largely devoted to Malotru’s passion for Nadia El Mansour, which was incompatible with his job.
Production is underway in London. George Clooney And Grant Heslov (Argo) are the executive producers. No release date yet.
