Tradecraft: Clive Owen Joins the NSA

Variety reports that Clive Owen will topline another spy movie. He's played a former MI6 operative in Duplicity and a former SAS operative in Killer Elite; now he'll play a current NSA operative in Recall for Moonstone Entertainment. According to the trade, Owen stars as "an NSA agent trying to piece together the events of a botched hostage rescue operation. As the agent begins to recall events and unearth the truth, he finds he can trust neither his fellow soldiers nor his own mind." Harold Becker (Mercury Rising) will direct from a script by Paul Schrader (Taxi Driver, Hardcore). Owen will next be seen playing an MI5 agent in Shadow Play.
