Who is behind the Original film?

Skydance Media Production Company is developing the movie. The company’s previous projects include Mission: Impossible: Fallout, The Old Guard, Top Gun: Maverick, Annihilation and more.

Plot and release date of Heart of Stone

At the time of writing, little is known about the plot of the Netflix Original movie. All we know for now is that it moves in the general direction of a female-led version of Mission: Impossible or the 007 franchise.

At this date, Heart of Stone is in active development. However, production will depend on Gadot’s availability as she has several other projects on the go right now. Meanwhile, thanks to issue 1263 of Production Weekly, we do know the filming location is Shepperton Studios in the UK.

Obviously, at this time there is no clue as to the release date of the Netflix Original Heart of Stone but it will likely be in 2023.
