Colin Farrell is to star opposite Charlize Theron, Ralph Fiennes and Willem Dafoe in a new action-drama which is set in Iraq.

Production Weekly reports that 'The Hurt Locker' tells the story of a bomb disposal unit caught up in a game of cat and mouse.

'Point Break' director Kathryn Bigelow will be behind the lens; she co-wrote the screenplay with war correspondent Mark Boal.

Principal photography on 'The Hurt Locker' will begin later in the spring.
