Tom Hanks and director Ron Howard have begun principal photography in Florence on the screen adaptation of Dan Brown's bestseller Inferno.
The film sees Hanks reprise his The Da Vinci Code and Angels & Demons role as Robert Langdon, with Felicity Jones, Ben Foster, Irrfan Khan, Omar Sy and Sidse Babett Knudsen also joining the cast.
Inferno finds symbologist Langdon waking up in an Italian hospital and suffering from amnesia, with The Theory of Everything star Jones playing Sienna Brooks, the doctor trying to help him as he seeks to "prevent a madman from releasing a global plague connected to Dante's Inferno".
Inferno will also be filmed in Venice and Budapest and is due for release on October 14, 2016.
Director Howard said: "I'm so excited to be starting production on our third Robert Langdon film.
"Audiences everywhere have shown a tremendous appetite for the Robert Langdon adventures and Inferno has all of the intrigue and action they could want."
