Netflix's new film Spiderhead now has the combined star power of Whiplash's Miles Teller, Jurney Smollett of Birds of Prey and the MCU's very own Thor, Chris Hemsworth!
Spiderhead is an adaptation of a George Saunders short story that first ran in The New Yorker and was later included in the author’s book, “Tenth of December.” It unfolds in the near future and follows two convicts who are housed in a facility run by a doctor who experiments on inmates with powerful drugs that alter emotions.
The film will be directed by Joseph Kosinski, who has worked with Teller on the upcoming Top Gun sequel, Top Gun: Maverick. Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick who penned Deadpool and Zombieland will write the screenplay.
In addition to playing Thor in the MCU, Hemsworth recently starred in the Netflix thriller Extraction. Teller’s credits include the Divergent series, War Dogs and Fantastic Four. Apart from appearing in Birds of Prey, Smollett can currently be seen in HBO’s Lovecraft Country.
