Kiwi director Lee Tamahori (Once Were Warriors, Die Another Day) helms the true story of the body double to the notorious Uday Hussein. Stars Dominic Cooper.
Based on a true story of money, power and opulent decadence, The Devil's Double delves deep into the lawless playground of excess and violence known as Baghdad, 1987. Summoned from the frontline to Saddam Hussein's palace, Iraqi army lieutenant Latif Yahia (Cooper) is thrust into the highest echelons of the 'royal family' when he’s ordered to become the 'fiday' – or body double – to Saddam's son, the notorious "Black Prince" Uday Hussein (also Cooper), a reckless, sadistic party-boy with a rabid hunger for sex and brutality.
