These announcements are always so vague it’s aggravating. A new thriller was announced today but it’s impossible to tell the tone they’ll be going for. So we’ll give you the skinny and then avoid it like the plague until we see some stills or footage. Ethan Hawke (Daybreakers) is set to star opposite Kristin Scott Thomas in the indie The Woman in the Fifth. Based on Douglas Kennedy’s tome, the thriller revolves around an American who has fled to Paris in the wake of a scandal that cost him his job as a film lecturer at a small university. He takes up with a widow who might be involved in a series of murders. Polish helmer Pawel Pawlikowski is directing. Shooting begins in Paris this March.
