Silver Pictures’ AUTOBAHN adds more names to its already impressive cast list. Felicity Jones and Oscar winners Anthony Hopkins and Ben Kingsley join Nicholas Hoult for the action project that centers on a young American couple who get in trouble while making a drug run in Germany and must elude vicious dealers and criminals along the country’s famed highway system. Hoult and Jones will star as the couple while Hopkins and Kingsley play the criminals who are hunting them.
Jones is best known for her starring roles in “Like Crazy” and “The Invisible Woman” and is currently starring in “The Theory of Everything” as Stephen Hawking’s wife, Jane. Hopkins is known around the world for his Oscar winning role as the manipulative and creepy Hannibal Lector in “Silence of the Lambs.” Sir Anthony will soon be portraying Ernest Hemingway in the biopic “Hemingway & Fuentes” opposite Andy Garcia. Last but not least, Kingsley (who has also been knighted) is known for his turn in “Schindler’s List” and can be seen in Robert Zemeckis’ upcoming drama “To Reach the Clouds” the story of Philippe Petit’s attempt to walk between the Twin Towers on a tightrope.
Jones is repped by WME, Hopkins is repped by UTA and Kingsley is with CAA. All three are also represented by Independent Talent Group.
