According to TheWrap, ‘Sleepless Night’ centers around Vincent Downs (Jamie Foxx), a seemingly corrupt Las Vegas Cop. When gangsters kidnap his son as ransom for a shipment of cocaine he stole, Downs races to save his son’s life without getting caught by Internal Affairs and before the mobsters discover that he’s actually lost the goods. Monaghan plays officer Jennifer Bryant, an Internal Affairs agent investigating Downs who ultimately has to decide which side of the law he’s on.

‘Sleepless Night’ is written by Andrea Berloff, the writer of the upcoming N.W.A. biopic, ‘Straight Outta Compton’ and is based on the French film “Nuit Blanche”.

Baran Bo Odar will direct “The Silence” as it starts production this May 2015.
