Sharp | from the director of Elite Squad

[Cremildo]

Netflix has landed Sharp, an action script set in the world of expert knife fighting by José Padilha & Nicolette Noble that Padilha will direct. Stampede Ventures will produce. Deal is in the seven-figure range.

It brings Padilha back to the Netflix fold after a long collaboration on the Narcos and Narcos: Mexico series. The hope here is to launch an original action film franchise set in the world of knife fighting. Sharp follows a group of six knife-wielding assassins who, after a globally-synchronized hit goes wrong, are forced to work together to save themselves and discover who betrayed them. [+]
