Adapted into script form by Nicole Perlman (‘Guardians of the Galaxy’) and David Chasteen (‘CIA’), it sees a terrorist threatens an attack so lethal it will return the United States to the dark ages.
The only person who can stop him is President Joanna Duncan (Berry) — but first she has to elude her own secret service and escape the confines of the White House in a gambit to save the world single-handedly. It’s set up at Apple Original Films.

Alongside the thriller, Berry is attached to star in ‘Fleur’ from writer/director Ellie Foumbi, which is in pre-production and set to shoot in Paris next month. She’ll play an American housewife who flees to the French capital and starts a life as a dominatrix and elite escort.
On the TV front, she has Peacock’s ‘Zero F***s’, about menopausal best friends, potential HBO medical thriller ‘The Patient’ and ‘Mother Doom’ at FX, which would see her as a retired Special Forces operative on a vengeful mission.
