Production is scheduled to begin this summer on Melanie Laurent's upcoming movie The Mother.

Michelle Yeoh is set to lead Laurent’s action thriller, with AGC International launching sales at EFM.

Basil Iwanyk and Erica Lee will produce through Thunder Road (the prod-co behind the John Wick franchise) alongside Arthur Sarkissian and John Schramm, with Stuart Ford serving as executive producer for AGC Studios alongside 30West, which is financing the project.

Laurent directs from a screenplay by PG Cuschieri. The film follows an immigrant mother and businesswoman (Yeoh) trying to make a new life for her family in America. But when her two teenage sons stumble into trouble with a Boston crime ring, she’s forced to rekindle her past to save them.
