Martin Campbell’s most recent film, Cleaner, is set to star Daisy Ridley in the action-thriller as the titular “cleaner.” It has been expressed the general plot will surround Ridley’s character Joey Locke – an unassuming window cleaner who used to be a soldier. At an energy company’s gala at the Shard in London, extreme activists take 300 hostages with the intention of murdering them in an attempt to make a statement. Given Locke’s previous training, she takes it upon herself to save the victims, take down the terrorist group, and expose the corrupt individuals from the energy company.

Producer Callum Grant stated about the film:

“Cleaner is a nail-biting thriller, unique and original in both its characters and its setting. Much of the film takes place on the side of the Shard – hundreds of feet up in the air – and I want the audience to be up there with Joey in a stomach churning, vertiginous experience. There isn’t a more instinctive and powerful actress than Daisy right now to help us do just that. The majority of my movies have been thrillers and Cleaner is one of the best I’ve ever read.”

Co-producer Sebastien Raybaud also noted: “It has always been the intention to make European action-thrillers that are sophisticated, provocative, and fun at the same time. Independent films from our region with heart and identity, but which also provide a unique and accessible proposition for contemporary audiences globally. With Martin and Daisy taking lead, and a script that is so unpredictable and authentic, we have everything we need do just that.”
