MIPCOM: Amazon’s Prime Video streaming service has ordered Masterplan, its first-ever French-Italian original film boasting a cast featuring Stanley Tucci, Simona Tabasco and Victor Belmondo.

Directed by Thomas Vincent (Reacher, Bodyguard), the English-language project unveiled on the first day of Mipcom begins filming today across France and Italy and is coproduced by Gaumont and Amazon MGM Studios.

The film will be available exclusively on Prime Video in more than 240 countries and territories worldwide.

It is co-written by Vincent and David Wolstencroft (Spooks, The Escape Artist). The story is by Giacomo Durzi, Alessandro Fabbri, Alberto Vignati, David Wolstencroft and Thomas Vincent.

When a legendary thief sets his sights on the Mona Lisa, he recruits two young strangers to help him – Chiara, a sharp Italian cybercrime expert, and Jay, a swaggering French explosives specialist – before revealing they are long-lost siblings – and that he is their father. Thrown into a chaotic reunion they never asked for, this new family must learn to work together – and try not to kill each other – if they want any chance at pulling off the heist of the century.
