Written by Graham Gordy and Michael D. Fuller, the project follows Quarry, a Vietnam vet who evidently learned his lessons all too well during his time overseas. Now he's home, earning a living as a cold, remorseless hitman, taking orders from a man called simply The Broker (Stellan Skarsgard).

Directed by John Hillcoat, the project is set in the 70s and is based on Max Allen Collins' pulp detective novels.

Winstead most recently starred in the last two "Die Hard" films as John McClane's (Bruce Willis) daughter Lucy. Her other film credits include "The Thing" and "Scott Pilgrim vs. the World."
