Based on a gripping, unbelievable true story of money, power and opulent decadence, Lionsgate’s THE DEVIL’S DOUBLE takes a white- knuckIe ride deep into the IawIess pIayground of excess and vioIence known as Baghdad, 1987. Summoned from the frontIine to Saddam Hussein's palace, Iraqi army Iieutenant Latif Yahia (Dominic Cooper) is thrust into the highest echelons of the "royal famiIy" when he’s ordered to become the ‘fiday’ – or body double – to Saddam's son, the notorious "BIack Prince" Uday Hussein (also Dominic Cooper), a reckless, sadistic party-boy with a rabid hunger for sex and brutaIity. With his and his famiIy’s Iives at stake, Latif must surrender his former self forever as he Iearns to waIk, talk and act Iike Uday. But nothing could have prepared him for the horror of the Black Prince’s psychotic, drug-addled life of fast cars, easy women and impulsive vioIence. With one wrong move costing him his life, Latif forges an intimate bond with Sarrab (Ludivine Sagnier), Uday's seductive mistress who’s haunted by her own secrets. But as war looms with Kuwait and Uday’s depraved gangster regime threatens to destroy them all, Latif realizes that escape from the deviI’s den will onIy come at the highest possible cost. |
