The film is being produced by Camelot Films, which also financed the movie alongside Tinto.
The movie is currently in the post-production stage. The screenplay of the film is co-written by Tinto, Routledge and Matt Hookings, reported Variety.
This upcoming movie appears to be another rebound for the actor after he was acquitted of sexual charges in 2023, reported Variety.
Oscar-winning actor Kevin Spacey has been found not guilty of all charges following a four-week trial in London on allegations of sexual assault, as per CNN.
The jury at Southwark Crown Court found the 64-year-old Hollywood star not guilty of two counts of other serious sexual offences and seven counts of sexual assault.
He was in tears when the verdict was announced.
The allegations concerned Spacey's tenure as artistic director of the Old Vic theatre in the British capital from 2004 to 2013. He pleaded not guilty to all of the charges. After deliberation over three days, Spacey was found not guilty.
Since he was acquitted of all nine sexual offence charges in a U.K. criminal trial in 2023, Spacey has added a few -- mostly European -- credits to his name, including 'Control' and 'Peter Five Eight', reported Variety.

When Rishi Kapoor revealed his mom Krishna Kapoor moved out of Raj Kapoor's house when he was having an affair with Vyajanthimala: 'My mother wouldn't give in till.....'
Vyjanthimala was one of the best actresses in Indian cinema, known for her movies like 'Naya Daur', 'Madhumati', 'Sangam' and more. While she achieved a top position among actresses of those times along with others like Waheeda Rehman , Madhubala, her journey wasn't easy. She faced a lot of body shaming and later was also in the news for rumours of her relationship with Raj Kapoor when he was already married to Krishna Kapoor. Her entry into films came at just 16, with the 1949 Tamil hit Vaazhkai. But her road to success wasn't always smooth — she endured body shaming early in her career. In her memoir Bonding, she recalled how Nagin director Nandlal Jaswantlal would humiliate her in public: 'You are too plump and still have a lot of baby fat. You have such a round face, that it fills the whole screen. Don't look like an idli.' The taunts often left her with 'tears shimmering in my eyes, all set to roll down. ' Vyjayanthimala's career choices were overseen by her grandmother, Yadugiri Devi, who mistrusted Raj Kapoor's reputation with women. Even so, gossip linked the two actors, especially after Sangam. Vyjayanthimala denied any affair in her memoir, calling it a publicity stunt: 'Manufacturing the romance because of his hunger for publicity.' But Rishi Kapoor 's autobiography Khullam Khulla told a different story. He wrote about moving out of the family home with his mother, Krishna Kapoor, during the alleged affair: 'I remember moving into the Natraj Hotel on Marine Drive with my mom during the time papa was involved with Vyjayanthimala. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Brother Donates Kidney To Save Sister's Life.

My father had bought the apartment for mom and us. He did all he could to woo her back, but my mother wouldn't give in until he had ended that chapter of his life. ' Vyjayanthimala and Raj Kapoor appeared together in just two films — Nazrana (1961) and Sangam (1964). Then, in 1968, at the height of her stardom, she stunned the industry by marrying the Kapoor family's doctor, Dr. Chamanlal Bali, and stepping away from films. Dance, however, remained a constant in her life through stage performances. Reflecting on her decision, she wrote, 'I made the wisest decision of my life, I left the films at the right time. I have no regrets because I worked with some of the best.'
