Two-time Emmy-winning "Breaking Bad" star Anna Gunn taps into her inner 'Gordon Gekko' as she leaps to the big screen in the upcoming finance drama "Equity."
Touted as "the first female-driven Wall Street film," Gunn stars as Naomi Bishop, an aggressive investment banker who is working her way up the corporate ladder while trying to thrive in a shady male-dominated profession.
Directed by indie filmmaker Meera Menon (Farah Goes Bang) and written by New York playwright-screenwriter Amy Fox (Heights), "Equity" also stars James Purefoy (The Following), Sarah Megan Thomas (Backwards), Alysia Reiner (Orange Is the New Black), Lee Tergesen (The Americans), and Samuel Roukin (TURN: Washington's Spies).
The film, which premiered to positive reviews at Sundance this year and also screened at the Tribeca Film Festival, will be released on July 29th.
