The movie, which is set to begin filming in May, is being directed by Ilya Naishuller with a script written by Josh Appelbaum and André Nemec, Deadline reported.

Exact plot details have yet to be shared, but “Heads of State” is described as “Midnight Run” (1988) meets “Air Force One” (1997), or a blend of action comedy and political action thriller.
