John Boyega is out for a heist in Naked Singularity from director Chase Palmer making his directorial debut in this heist thriller based on the 2008 novel of the same name by Sergio De La Pava. Boyega stars alongside Olivia Cooke (Ready Player One).
The film follows Casi (Boyega), a promising young public defender in New York City whose idealism is beginning to crack under the daily injustices of the very justice system he’s trying to make right. Doubting all he has worked for and seeing signs of the universe collapsing all around him, he is pulled into a dangerous, high-stakes drug heist by an unpredictable former client (Cooke) to beat the broken system at its own game.
Palmer wrote the screenplay with David Matthews, with Ridley Scott and Dick Wolf serving as executive producers.
