Priyanka Chopra to star alongside Chris Pratt in new movie

Cape Town - Priyanka Chopra is in talks to join a new adaptation of Cowboy Ninja Viking starring Chris Pratt.

The role is highly coveted in Hollywood, and reports note that Chopra beat out the competition after a very successful on-screen chemistry test with Pratt.

According to Variety the film is based on a graphic novel by A.J. Lieberman and illustrator Riley Rossmo. The novel revolves around an assassin who embodies the toughest skills of three different personas: A cowboy, a ninja and a viking. The film is set to hit cinemas in June 2019.

Last week, the Baywatch actress dropped out of Salman Khan's film Bharat.

Director Ali Abbas Zaffar tweeted the news that she withdrew from the film for a special reason.
