Forest Whitaker was announced to co-star in Havoc along with Hardy on March 22. The details of Whitaker’s character remain under wraps.
According to Netflix, the story is set after a drug deal gone wrong, when a bruised detective must fight his way through a criminal underworld to rescue a politician’s estranged son, while unraveling a deep web of corruption and conspiracy that ensnares his entire city.
It isn’t yet clear whether the film will be set in Wales or is only being filmed there. The film is written and directed by Gareth Evans.
