I posted earlier about Hayden possibly being part as “The Chase” cast. Well, looks as if Cinando.com has him listed as part of the cast and the film itself will try to be sold at the Berlinale/European Film Market next month. Source

Synopsis
Ex pat American getaway driver SCALPEL (Hayden Christensen) is the best in the business. A former test driver for Lamborghini, behind the wheel he can slice through the streets with surgical precision, a skill that’s tested to the limit when he signs up for a heist that goes awry. Barely escaping the law following an epic, tire melting pursuit, Scalpel promises his frantic kid sister SAMANTHA that he’s retired, much to the
chagrin of his arch nemesis, crooked cop RAY who’s obsessed with taking him down.
After failing to lure Scalpel back into the game with a lucrative joyriding job, ruthless Ray pulls out the stops and goes after Samantha, determined to get to Scalpel by any means necessary. Now with his family under threat Scalpel realizes the only way to escape Ray is to leave town forever and accepts the job. He knows it’s a set up, but running out of choices and time the only option left is to give Ray what he wants: a showdown on wheels.
