THE HOLLYWOOD REPORTER – The Hunger Games‘ Josh Hutcherson has signed on to star opposite Suki Waterhouse (Assassination Nation) and Tilda Cobham-Hervey (Hotel Mumbai) in the thriller Plume.

Written and directed by Mike Gan, the film follows lonely, unstable gas station attendant Melinda (Cobham-Hervey), who is tired of being overshadowed by her more confident, outgoing co-worker Sheila (Waterhouse). When the gas station is held up at gunpoint by Billy (Hutcherson), a desperate man in need of quick cash, Melinda finds an opportunity to make a connection with the robber, regardless of who gets hurt.

Plume is being produced by Yale Prods.’ Jordan Yale Levine, Jordan Beckerman, Michael J. Rothstein and Russ Posternak alongside Sukee Chew of Hopscotch Pictures and Ash Christian of Cranium Entertainment. Film Mode Entertainment is handling international sales and will introduce the film to buyers at European Film Market in Berlin.

“I am beyond ecstatic for the opportunity to work with such a talented trio of actors in Josh, Suki and Tilda,” said Gan. “I’m a huge fan of their work and feel they’re perfectly suited to bring the characters of Melinda, Billy and Sheila to life.”
