Kelly Reilly, who starred in Yellowstone, is considering a new project with Samuel L. Jackson.
According to Deadline, Reilly and Oscar nominee David Strathairn (Nightmare Alley) are in final negotiations to join the cast of director Kenny Leon's drama Last Meals,
which will shoot in Atlanta later this month owing to a SAG-AFTRA interim pact.Boyd Holbrook (Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull),
Theo Rossi (The Penguin), and Joshua Boone (A Jazzman's Blues) also appear in minor parts, and the film is based on Justin Piasecki's screenplay Death of an Ortolan.
Jackson, best known for his role as Nick Fury in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, has joined Last Meals as Walter, a disgraced former White House cook.
After 30 years, he finds himself preparing the final meals for death row inmates. Walter then strikes up an odd connection with Reed, a hunger striker whose innocence he begins to believe in.
Reed, Walter, and Hannah (Reilly) are soon taking on a politically driven jail head (Strathairn), bringing hope and dignity to the other criminals.
Reilly has been quite busy this year, having also signed on to feature in the coming-of-age film Little Wing alongside Succession star Brian Cox.
