Robertson Joins Code Name: Geronimo
She'll star in Jock Stockwell's thriller

30 January 2012  |  Written by James White  |  Source: Variety


Robertson Joins Code Name: Geronimo

When it comes to films depicting the death of Osama Bin Laden, Kathryn Bigelow's still-untitled action thriller has been receiving most of the attention. But there is another movie out there looking to cover similar territory: John Stockwell's Code Name: Geronimo, which has just set Kathleen Robertson to star.

She'll be playing an eager CIA officer who is part of the team directing the operation that sent two teams of Navy SEALs into Pakistan to track down and kill the Al Qaeda leader.

Stockwell, who is still best known for directing the likes of Blue Crush and Into The Blue, will be sticking more with sand than sea this time, as he's planning to start shooting today in New Mexico. He's working from a script by Kendall Lampkin.

Robertson, meanwhile, has most recently been seen on US cable drama Boss, featuring alongside Kelsey Grammer. She's also co-written and starred in the indie thriller Gravity Pulls.
