Jodie Comer in Early Talks to Play Josephine in Ridley Scott's Napoleon Movie KITBAG

Jodie Comer in Early Talks to Play Josephine in Ridley Scott's Napoleon Movie KITBAG
"Killing Eve" star Jodie Comer is in early talks to join the cast of Ridley Scott's upcoming historical epic "Kitbag". Joaquin Phoenix is set to star as Napoleon Bonaparte, and if the deal goes through, Comer will play Josephine Bonaparte. Scott was apparently very impressed by Comer's work on his upcoming historical thriller "The Last Duel", which also stars Ben Affleck, Adam Driver and Matt Damon. Production on that film wrapped at the end of last year

Apple Studios will finance and produce the film. The title "Kitbag" derives from the saying "there is a general's staff hidden in every soldier's kitbag". The screenplay is written by David Scarpa ("All the Money in the World") and its focus is Napoleon's origins, relentless ambition, his military leadership, and his rise to becoming emperor along with the volatile relationship he had with his wife Josephine.

Scott will begin working on "Kitbag" as soon as he wraps production on "House of Gucci", the MGM true crime drama that stars Lady Gaga.

Comer is expected to shoot the fourth season of "Killing Eve" later this year. She can also be seen in the sci-fi action comedy "Free Guy" opposite Ryan Reynolds.
