LOS ANGELES - Actor Tilda Swinton is the latest addition to "The Ballad of the Small Player," directed by Edward Berger, best known for the multiple Oscar-winning film "All Quiet on the Western Front."

Swinton, known for “Suspiria,” “Memoria” and “The Chronicles of Narnia,” joins Colin Farrell in the Netflix project.

According to the official synopsis, "As his past and his debts begin to catch up with him, he encounters a kindred spirit at a high-stakes gambling den in Macau who may hold the key to his salvation."

Rowan Joffé wrote the screenplay based on Lawrence Osborne's 2014 novel of the same name.

Mike Goodridge is producing the film through his banner Good Chaos alongside Berger for Nine Hours and Matthew James Wilkinson for Stigma Films.

Production on the project is scheduled to begin in the summer.
