Guy Pearce (Memento, Bloodshot) and Monica Bellucci (Spectre, Nekrotronic) have been added to the cast of Martin Campbell’s indie crime thriller Memory, joining Liam Neeson, who will be heading the film.
Taj Atwal (Truth Seekers, Line of Duty), Harold Torres (Self), and Ray Fearon (Hamlet, The Foreigner) will also be starring in the movie.
Memory is based on the book De Zaak Alzheimer by Jef Geeraerts and the Belgian crime drama The Memory of a Killer, directed by Erik Van Looy.
It follows Alex Lewis (Neeson), an expert assassin who is known for his discretion.
When he refuses to carry out a job for a dangerous criminal organization, he becomes the target and must go on a hunt to find those who want him dead.

Veteran FBI agents Vincent Serra (Pearce), Linda Amistead (Atwal), and Mexican intelligence liaison Hugo Marquez (Torres) are brought in to investigate the trail of bodies, leading them closer to Alex, but also drawing the ire of local tech mogul Davana Sealman (Bellucci).
With both the crime syndicate and FBI after him, Alex has the skills to stay ahead, except for one thing – he is struggling with severe memory loss, which affects his every move.
As details blur and enemies close in, Alex must question his every action and who he can ultimately trust.
Black Bear Pictures is financing the film, with Oscar-winner Cathy Schulman producing through her Welle Entertainment studio, alongside Rupert Maconick, Black Bear’s Michael Heimler, and Arthur Sarkissian.
Teddy Schwarzman and Ben Stillman will executive produce via Black Bear Pictures, with Peter Bouckaert and Rudy Durand.
The movie is currently being filmed in Bulgaria.
Liam Neeson seems to be unstoppable when it comes to hunting people who have wronged him on the silver screen.
The veteran actor has become synonymous with action movies, and in Memory, he will be taking on the role of Alex Lewis, an expert assassin with a reputation for being discreet and precise.
However, when he turns down a job from a dangerous criminal organization, he becomes their target and must go on the run to find those who want him dead.
