Tim RobbinsTim Robbins and Derek Luke will star in director Phillip Noyce’s political thriller Hot Stuff.

The movie, based on actual events, tells the story of an ordinary man forced to resort to terror during South Africa’s brutal apartheid era. Luke will star as Patrick Chamusso, the real life saboteur sentenced to 24 years imprisonment for his daring solo attacks against the apartheid regime. Robbins will play a policeman.

Filming is set to begin in August on location in Johannesburg, Cape Town, Mozambique, Swaziland and in the industrial zone and coal fields around Secunda, where the actual story took place. The screenplay is by Shawn Slovo, the daughter of murdered anti-apartheid activist Ruth First and leading African National Congress figure Joe Slovo.

Robbins can be seen later this month in War of the Worlds.
