The movie's script portrays McGee as an Afghan war veteran, who is on his journey to look for sapphires, which unfortunately leads him to a sadistic and brutal torturer.

Dinklage's role in the film will be a mathematician who earned a fortune for an application and who eventually ends up as McGee's sidekick.

Peltz will play a woman, who pretends to be older than she really is. Knowing a lot more about the coveted sapphires that she hires McGee to find, she ends up on the torturer's wrong side. 

The movie, which will shoot in Florida and Puerto Rico, is hoping to get started on May. 

Dinklage was last seen in the big screen in X-Men: Days of Future Past and will appear in the new movie Pixels alongside Adam Sandler. He was also recently cast in the comedy film Michelle Darnell, starring Kristen Bell and Melissa McCarthy, scheduled to be released in April 8, 2016 while Game of Thrones, for which Dinklage has won a Golden Globe and an Emmy award will return on April 12. 

Peltz, was one of the leading stars in last year's Transformers movie and now has a recurring role in the drama thriller series Bates Motel.
