Davis will next be seen in the Denis Villenueve-directed “Prisoners” for Warner Brothers and the Gavin Hood-directed “Ender’s Game, “which Summit Entertainment releases in November.
She continues to be managed by Estelle Lasher at Principal Entertainment and her lawyer is Michael Adler of Lichter, Grossman, Nichols, Adler & Feldman.
Phenominal actress. Best of wishes Ms. Davis.
