In 1983, a group of childhood friends pulled off the crime of the century: kidnapping one of the richest men in the world, the heir of the Heineken beer empire (Anthony Hopkins). The shocking capture–by gunpoint in broad daylight on the streets of Amsterdam–resulted in the largest ransom ever paid for a kidnapped individual. It was truly the perfect crime…until they got away with it. Based on a true story, KIDNAPPING MR. HEINEKEN stars Anthony Hopkins, Sam Worthington, Jim Sturgess and Ryan Kwanten.
Based on the novel “The Kidnapping of Alfred Heineken” by Peter DeVries, KIDNAPPING MR. HEINEKEN is directed by Daniel Alfredson from screenplay by William Brookfield and stars Anthony Hopkins, Jim Sturgess, Sam Worthington, Ryan Kwanten.
Alchemy (formerly Millennium Entertainment) will release KIDNAPPING MR. HEINEKEN on iTunes/VOD and in theaters March 6, 2015.
