Heart of Stone is a 2023 American spy action thriller film directed by Tom Harper from a screenplay by Greg Rucka and Allison Schroeder and a story by Rucka.[4] The film stars Gal Gadot (as the title character), Jamie Dornan, Alia Bhatt (in her Hollywood debut), Sophie Okonedo, and Matthias Schweighöfer. Its plot follows an international intelligence operative who must embark on a dangerous mission to protect a mysterious artificial intelligence system known as "The Heart". She is tasked by the peacekeeping operation known as Charter to keep the object safe from falling into enemy hands.[5]
Development began in December 2020, when Gadot signed on to star. Harper and Netflix were confirmed to serve as director and distributor respectively the following month, with the rest of the cast being confirmed in early 2022. Filming took place in Europe from January to July of that year. With a reported production budget of $150 million, it is among one of Netflix's most expensive original films.[3]
Heart of Stone was released on August 11, 2023, by Netflix. The film received mixed reviews from critics and emerged as Netflix's second-most-watched film in the second half of 2023 with nearly 110 million views.[6]
