Jamie Dornan joins Rosamund Pike and Taron Egerton in the new biographical film "A Private War". Matthew Heineman ("Narco" and "Ghost Town") is directing, Arash Amer ("Grace of Monaco") is writing the script, and the film will be based on the article about Colvin's life written by "Vanity Fair". Charlize Theron is the producer. Rosamund Pike plays Marie Colvin, a female war correspondent, and Egerton plays a journalist with a military background who follows Colvin to the war zone to report. Filming will start in November. Colvin has been to war fronts such as Kosovo, Chechnya, East Timor, the Middle East, Sierra Leone, and Zimbabwe. He was seriously injured and lost an eye during the Sri Lankan civil war. He also reported on the "Arab Spring" anti-government movement. He was killed in a rocket attack in Homs when the Syrian war broke out in 2012.
