Warner Bros. has picked up the North American rights to "
Edge of Darkness," the Mel Gibson thriller directed by Martin Campbell, from Graham King's GK Films.
Based on a BBC miniseries, "Darkness" sees Gibson return to the big screen for the first time since 2002's "Signs," playing a homicide cop whose 24-year-old daughter is murdered on the steps of his home. His search for her killers leads him to a world of corporate coverups and government collusion, causing a CIA operative (Ray Winstone) to be sent to clean up the evidence.
