Samuel L. Jackson will play Andrew Mwangura, a former naval engineer turned independent journalist who became known for having negotiated with Somali pirates and freeing a Ukrainian cargo ship and its crew.

As head of the Seafarers' Assistance Programme, a non-profit organization that comes to the aid of victims of pirate attacks in the region of Somalia, Mwangura has proven several times he can find a solution to the most desperate of situations.

The producer of the movie in which Samuel L. Jackson will star says: «Andrew Mwangura has the trust of the pirates and the ship owners, and his loyalty is to the kidnapped crews that get caught in the middle of these episodes.”

No screenwriter or director has yet been hired, but the project is nonetheless well on its way.
