Nicolas Cage Vs. Paul Sloan in Christian Sesma’s thriller 10 Double Zero!

Last Updated on July 30, 2021

Hell, yeah! Looks like today we have some kick-ass news as it seems that none other than Nicolas Cage and Paul Sloan will be going at it in the new action-thriller 10 DOUBLE ZERO. This will be Nick Vallelonga's first screenplay to go into production since he won Oscars for Best Screenplay and Best Picture for GREEN BOOK. Vallelonga's penned the film alongside Paul Sloan (I AM WRAITH) and Christian Sesma (VIGILANTE DIARIES).

Sesma will also direct the thriller, which is set in the stifling heat of Louisiana and will follow

Two police officers who take on a personal vendetta to hunt down cop killers, but as they get closer to solving the crime, they find themselves targets of a conspiracy in the ranks of the police force and the investigation leads right back to them.

Cage will lead cast. Info not mentioned in Deadline story but relayed to us via an insider is that Paul Sloan plays the villain that Nicolas Cage is chasing. Wonderfilm Global will be handling world sales in Cannes. Producer Jeff Bowler, a founding partner of Wonderfilm Media, says:

We're thrilled to introduce 10 Double Zero to audiences around the globe for the first time in Cannes. With Nick’s amazing script and his multiple-award-winning track record, combined with the legendary talent of Nic Cage in the starring role, this commercially driven thriller is certain to entertain audiences all over the world, and we’ve been gratified to have already enjoyed very strong sales here in Cannes.”

What has me really excited for this movie is the inclusion of Paul Sloan. For those of you few out there that might not know, Sloan is a dude we all know for recent hits such as Alice In Chains: Black Antenna and The Arrow's upcoming feature HERETIC. Can't wait to see Sloan and Cage to toe-to-toe!

Bowler and Vallelonga will be producing the film along with Bret Saxon, Mike Hatton, and Josh Mandel. The cop thriller is due to get underway in July.
