Oscar Winner Adrien Brody is getting ready for some action, by donning lycra cycling shorts and a backpack (probably) in his new movie The Courier.
Written by the team behind Wanted and 3:10 To Yuma ( Michael Brandt and Derek Haas), **The Courier **sees a fearless delivery guy chased across the US by mob bosses and corrupt police, as he attempts to locate a drop-off for the briefcase he has been charged with.
Russell Mulcahy (Resident Evil: Extinction) will direct. Shooting in Louisiana and Las Vegas is due to start in January.
Whether The Courier will match up to The Transporter franchise will be judged by an independent board of delivery-boy adjudicators.
