Sebastian Stan to Star in New Spy Comedy Movie for Paramount

Romanian-American actor Sebastian Stan is attached to star in an untitled spy comedy in very early development at Paramount.

Maria Bakalova will also star in the project.

Not much else is known about the film, but Jenny Bicks is set to pen the script, which focuses on a failed double agent who becomes an unlikely success, based off an original pitch.

Paul Feig is eyeing to direct and will also produce alongside Laura Allen Fischer for Feigco Entertainment, as well as Stan and Emmy winner Emily Gerson Saines.

Stan landed his first Emmy, Golden Globe and Critics’ Choice Award nominations for his turn as Tommy Lee in Hulu’s acclaimed miniseries "Pam & Tommy".

The actor is best known for his MCU role as Bucky Barnes/Winter Soldier in the "Avengers" movies and for Marvel's series "The Falcon and the Winter Soldier" as well as his starring turn opposite Margot Robbie in Neon’s "I, Tonya".

Stan will appear in the upcoming A24 thriller "A Different Man" and will make his return to the MCU in "Thunderbolts", which begins filming this summer.

He was recently seen in Apple’s thriller "Sharper" opposite Julianne Moore.
