ROLLERBALL Meets SAVING MR. BANKS' Star In THE UBER KANONE
Tue, January 7, 2014 
Cortesy of The Wrap comes news of a promising "psychological thriller" that takes place during World War I, starring Victoria Summer (Saving Mr. Banks, Transformers: Age of Extinction), Chris Klein (American Pie, ROLLERBALL) and Werner Daehn (xXx, Speed Racer).
The indie movie stars Klein as an American pilot flying for the French under the Associated Powers during WWI. He’s sent to the Arabian Desert to recover a downed German pilot (Daehn) and the top-secret information he’s carrying.
Accompanying him is an inexperienced English nurse and German translator (Summer). All three are thrust into a web of lies and deceit that sets in motion a deadly game of survival.
The film also marks the directorial debut of Damien Lay, who has amassed a fair share of documentaries under his belt, mainly in the mysteries of World War II in M24: The Last Sunrise and He's Coming South as well as the Vietnam War doc, The Battle of Long Tan.
I'm a sucker for World War-set mysteries, so The Uber Kanone sounds like something I'll watch day one.
