Kartiah Vergara (All Her Fault) has joined the cast of Bear Country, an action thriller from director Derrick Borte and starring Academy Award winner Russell Crowe. The film is based on the novel Strip by Thomas Perry.

Crowe plays “the aging yet formidable club owner, Manco Kapak, who has been robbed by a masked gunman. Now, his aspirations of selling his club and riding off into the sunset alongside his girlfriend appear more distant than ever. Cartel bosses are breathing down his neck and a young upstart has been posing as the new guy in town eager to purchase the club.”

Borte adapted the screenplay with Daniel Forte.
