Assassin's Creed director Justin Kurzel and Gal Gadot are both set to bring Ruin to the big screen…

By the end of next year, Gal Gadot and director Patty Jenkins will be back on the set of a Wonder Woman movie, preparing Wonder Woman 2 for an end-of-2019 release. However, ahead of that, Gadot is joining forces with Assassin’s Creed and Macbeth director Justin Kurzel for a new project.

They’re making a World War II-set drama by the name of Ruin. It’s said to be a revenge thriller, penned by Ryan and Matthew Firpo.The plot sees an ex-Nazi captain in the aftermath of the war, going through Germany trying to make up in some way for his crimes. He thus goes looking for the other members of his Death Squad, to bring them to justice. Inglorious Basterds has been cited as a touchpoint. We’ll see how much of a touchpoint – and if that’s just press talk – when the movie lands.

Further casting hasn’t been confirmed as of yet, but the plan is to shoot the movie in the first half of 2018.

We’ll keep you posted as we hear more…
