Hawes who will play the lead, portraying detective Chief Inspector Caroline Goode, will also produce the honor-killing drama the first project from her production company Buddy Club. 

Honour will follow detective Goode’s [Hawes] search to discover the fate of missing Banaz and her attempts to bring a group of killers to justice in the wake of a so-called honor-killing.

The project hails from The Girl and Vanity Fair writer Gwyneth Hughes.

“In a time where honour killings are still rife, it is critical to shine a light on such an important subject,” Hawes said. “Banaz Mahmod’s story, and DCI Goode’s subsequent investigation, is certainly one that needs to be told and I am proud to be a part of it.”

“That this story is ultimately so uplifting is down to the sheer heroism and dedication of the police officers who hunted down her killers,” added Hughes. 

Hawes is set to star in the upcoming feature films Misbehaviour and Rebecca.

Working title has added four names to its call sheet — Keeley Hawes, Ann Dowd, Sam Riley, and Ben Crompton. They will star opposite previously announced Kristin Scott Thomas, Lily James, and Armie Hammer in the gothic thriller.

The story follows a newly married young woman who visits her husband’s imposing family estate on a bleak English coast, where she finds herself battling the shadow of his dead first wife — the mysterious Rebecca — whose legacy continues to haunt the house. 

Ben Wheatley will direct from a script revised by Kingsman screenwriter Jane Goldman. According to Variety, the screenplay for the adaptation was first published in 1938.

Hawes is best known for her role on the series Bodyguard. Dowd’s credits include The Handmaid’s Tale. Crompton starred on HBO’s Game of Thrones. 

Production is scheduled to begin next week in the UK and France.
