Jake Gyllenhaal has lined up his next big screen role.

Deadline reports that actor Jake Gyllenhaal has officially signed on star in the upcoming suspense thriller The Guilty.

The film is actually a remake of a Danish thriller that’s already getting some award show buzz. The Denmark foreign language film is currently vying for Oscar glory in the foreign language category, following a huge win at this year’s Sundance Film Festival where it won the world cinema audience award.

Overseas, the Danish film has already been nominated at the European Film Awards in the Best Screenwriter and Best Actor categories.

The Guilty focuses on a police officer who is demoted to desk work at an emergency call center after he finds himself under investigation. While there, he receives a terrifying phone call from a kidnapped woman. Saving her won’t be easy, as he’ll have to battle his internal demons if he wants to succeed.

The remake will find original co-writer/director Gustav Möller and producer Lina Flint returning to serve as executive producers on the American version of the movie.

Möller and Flint will be sharing producing duties with Jake Gyllenhaal and Ripa Marker, who will be producing under their Nine Stories banner.

In a joint statement announcing the remake, Gyllenhaal and Maker spoke of being swept up by the Danish film when they first saw it at this year’s Sundance.

“We saw The Guilty at Sundance and were blown away. Möller’s film masterfully weaves tension into an acute character study, and is exactly the kind of material that Nine Stories is excited to develop,” said Gyllenhaal and Maker. “We are honored to be able to adapt it for American audiences alongside Bold Films.”

There’s currently no word on when Gyllenhaal’s remake of The Guilty will make its way onto the silver screen.

Coming up next, fans of the actor can catch him starring opposite Tom Holland in the Spider-Man: Homecoming sequel, Spider-Man: Far From Home. The superhero sequel hits theaters on July 5, 2019.
