Yahoo News The Walking Dead's Norman Reedus lands next movie role in The Housewife
The Walking Dead star Norman Reedus has landed his next lead movie role in The Housewife.
The new psychological drama, which will start filming in June, comes from director Ben Shirinian, and is based on a true story that took place in 1964.
Focusing on a determined young New York Times journalist (played by Ready Player One's Tye Sheridan), we follow the character as he tracks down a potential Nazi officer who secretly resides in Queens.

He becomes friendly with the suspect's elegant and charming wife (The Watcher's Naomi Watts), as his investigation starts to create unsettling implications.
Also on board to star is The White Lotus' Michael Imperioli, though details of his and Reedus's roles remain under wraps for now.
Reedus is perhaps best known for playing Daryl Dixon in The Walking Dead franchise, recently reprising the role for his own self-titled spin-off.
Daryl Dixon became an immediate success upon its debut in September, achieving the biggest premiere for streaming service AMC+ in its history.
