Two-time Oscar
nominee Jessica Chastain has entered negotiations to join Jake Gyllenhaal in
the upcoming big screen adaptation of Ubisoft's The Division.
Based on a video game
of the same name, the story takes place in a dystopian New York City after a devastating
smallpox pandemic kills most of the population, and follows an agent of the
Strategic Homeland Division and his search for the origins of the outbreak and resulting
criminal activity.
In addition to
starring Gyllenhaal is also producing the project along with Ubisoft's Gerard
Guillemot.
According to THR,
Ubisoft is packing the project before presenting it to studios, a process they
have used in the recent past with the upcoming Assassin's Creed starring
Michael Fassbender and Splinter Cell starring Tom Hardy.
