Dominic Sena (Swordfish, Gone in Sixty Seconds) is set to direct Whiteout, an Antarctic whodunit adapted from a series of graphic novels by Greg Rucka, reports Production Weekly.

Kate Beckinsale is in talks to topline the film scheduled to start shooting the first week of March in Montreal and Manitoba.

Written by Erich and Jon Hoeber, Whiteout follows U.S. Marshal Carrie Stetko as she uncovers the first murder ever in the Antarctic just as the sun is about to set for six months. She must catch the killer before he leaves the ice or be stuck there with him in the dark for six months.

I've had this as an HSX stock for what seems like forever now. Originally it had Reese Witherspoon attached.

Anyone read the graphic novels?

Enjoyed it. Kate Beckinsale makes watching any movie worthy IMHO. Was not great cinema but entertaining.

Tom Skerrit could be Kris Kristofferson's twin!
