Following on from the castings of Melissa McCarthy (Ghostbusters), Tiffany Haddish (Girls Trip) and Elisabeth Moss (The Handmaid’s Tale), it has now been announced that Margo Martindale (The Americans), Bill Camp (Red Sparrow) and Brian D’Arcy James (13 Reasons Why) have signed on to appear in New Line Cinema’s adaptation of the DC/Vertigo comic book series The Kitchen.
The directorial debut of Andrea Berloff, screenwriter on Straight Outta Compton, The Kitchen is a gritty Irish mafia story that takes place in 1970s New York and revolves around three mob wives who take over their husbands’ criminal enterprise in Hell’s Kitchen when the men are busted by the FBI.
As THR reports, Martindale will play a woman who runs the Irish mob behind the scenes, with Camp as the boss of a Brooklyn Italian crime family and James as McCarthy’s husband.
The Kitchen is slated to go into production in May and is set for release on September 20th, 2019.
