“Inferno” continues the Harvard symbologist’s adventures on screen: when Robert Langdon wakes up in an Italian hospital with amnesia, he teams up with Sienna Brooks, a doctor he hopes will help him recover his memories and prevent a madman from releasing a global plague connected to Dante’s “Inferno.”

Commenting on the announcement, Howard said, “I’m so excited to be starting production on our third Robert Langdon film.  Audiences everywhere have shown a tremendous appetite for the Robert Langdon adventures and “Inferno” has all of the intrigue and action they could want.”

The film will be shot on location in such exotic cities as Florence, Venice, and Budapest.
