Hilary Swank to star in The Resident

Cool News from Variety Today - Hilary Swank will be the star in a new Thriller from Hammer Films.  'The Resident' is set to shoot next May with newcomer director Antti J. Jokinen, who also co-wrote the script.  This will be Jokinen's first major feature, but has directed many tv series back in his home town in Finland, and has directed music vides for the likes of Will Smith, Beyonce, Eminem, Korn and Celine Dion (quite a mix there!). 

"Swank will play a doctor who moves into a Brooklyn loft. Becoming suspicious that she's not alone in her new home, she discovers her landlord is a stalker."

'The Resident' is Hammer Films second production since their relaunce.  They recently wrapped up production on a low-budget thriller called "The Wake Wood".
