Gerard Butler is set to take the lead as preacher Sam Childers.   Michelle Monaghan will play Childers’ wife, Lynn, and Michael Shannon plays a close friend of Childers who stayed with his wife while he was away in Africa.

Butler, who just finished filming Ralph Fiennes’ directorial debut, Coriolanus, in Belgrade, has been committed to the film since January.

Production Weekly reports that the film will shift the production to Michigan in July.

Film will be directed by Marc “Quantum of Solace” Foster.

Film follows the real-life 1998 story of Sam Childers, a drug-dealing biker who fends off African forces who kidnap children.
Michelle Monaghan will star as Chiders’ wife and Michael Shannon will play Childers’ friend.

First Showing has been tracking the story. Childers constructed an orphanage and fought off armed militia whose objective it was to kidnap children.

“Machine Gun” is baed on Childers’ autobiography “Another Man’s War: The True Story of One Man’s Battle to Save Children in the Sudan.”
