Tatiana Maslany (Orphan Black) and Sebastian Stan (Captain America: The Winter Soldier) are in talks to star in Destroyer, according to Deadline. The modern Los Angeles crime thriller will be directed by Karyn Kusama (The Invitation, Girlfight) from an original screenplay by Phil Hay and Matt Manfredi (The Invitation, Ride Along) and stars Nicole Kidman (Moulin Rouge!). 30WEST will fully finance the film.
