Chris Pine to Lead Texas Crime Thriller ‘Nowhere Fast’ From ‘Fargo’ Creator Noah Hawley; 30West, CAA, AGC Selling

Chris Pine appears to be heading back into “Hell or High Water” waters with a role in a new crime thriller.

The “Star Trek” and “Don’t Worry Darling” star will take the lead in “Nowhere Fast,” a Texas crime thriller following a small-town criminal who inadvertently kills the nephew of his boss. The film is being written and directed by Noah Hawley, who created the FX series “Fargo” and “Legion” and most recently created — and directed — the upcoming series “Alien: Earth.”

26 Keys Productions, Hawley’s Austin-based film and TV production company, is producing.

30West, which exec produced and financed Pine’s “The Contractor,” is financing and will co-represent the U.S. rights for “Nowhere Fast” alongside CAA Media Finance. AGC International, the international sales arm of thriving independent studio AGC Studios, will represent the foreign rights. Additional casting is currently underway.

30West’s recent projects include Michael Shanks’ “Together,” which was acquired by Neon in the first big deal out of Sundance 2025; Marc Webb’s “Day Drinker” starring Madelyn Cline, Johnny Depp and Penelope Cruz; and “Power Ballad” from John Carney, starring Paul Rudd, Nick Jonas, Jack Reynor, and Havana Rose Liu.

Pine is represented by CAA, Viewpoint, and Gendler, Kelly & Cunningham. Hawley is represented by CAA, Sunshine Sachs Morgan & Lylis, and McKuin Frankel Whitehead.
