Set to film in Alberta later this year:
Jude Law (Fantastic Beasts) and Nicholas Hoult (X-Men franchise) have been set to lead true-crime movie The Order, which acclaimed Australian filmmaker Justin Kurzel (Macbeth) will direct.
Oscar- and BAFTA-nominated writer Zach Baylin (King Richard), wrote the screenplay based on The Silent Brotherhood, the book by Kevin Flynn and Gary Gerhardt that chronicles the escalating crimes of the titular white supremist domestic terror group.
In 1983, a series of increasingly violent bank robberies, counterfeiting operations and armored car heists frightened communities throughout the Pacific Northwest. As baffled law enforcement agents scrambled for answers, a lone FBI agent (Law), stationed in the sleepy, picturesque town of Coeur d’Alene, Idaho, came to believe the crimes were not the work of traditional, financially motivated criminals but a group of dangerous domestic terrorists, inspired by a radical, charismatic leader (Hoult), plotting a devastating war against the federal government of the United States.
