Matthew Heineman is set to direct the long-gestating drama about the late Sunday Times war correspondent Marie Colvin, to be played by Pike, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
The film is being produced by Charlize Theron and Basil Iwanyk via their respective Thunder Road Pictures and Denver & Deliah banners .
The script was adapted by Arash Amel and is based on a Vanity Fair article about Colvin's dramatic life as a war correspondent.
Colvin covered all the major conflicts of the last three decades, including the Sri Lankan civil war, where she was severely injured and lost an eye, the Arab Spring and finally the war in Syria, where she died in a rocket attack while reporting from Homs.
