Some pics from the first set photoshoot Saoirse did in 2008 have been replaced with HQ.

Moving aggressively, Sony Pictures Worldwide Acquisition Group has acquired all available foreign territory rights to Focus Features’ adventure thriller “Hanna,” from director Joe Wright.

Deal throws the weight of a studio behind “Hanna” in many international territories.

Focus — Universal’s specialty division — will retain distribution rights to “Hanna” in the U.S., U.K., Australia, New Zealand, Greece, Israel, Middle East and CIS. Sony Pictures Entertainment will release the film everywhere else.

Pact was engineered by Alison Thompson’s Focus Features Intl., which was shopping the project to foreign buyers at Cannes, and marks the biggest deal of the market so far. It also pairs a U.S. major with a U.S. studio specialty division.

“Hanna,” starring Saoirse Ronan, Cate Blanchett and Eric Bana, is in its final month of filming in Europe and will be released in 2011. Project reteams Wright and Ronan, who worked together on Focus’ “Atonement.” Universal distributed “Atonement” internationally.

“It is a pleasure to be in business with Focus on what looks like an intense thriller. Audiences around the world will love this movie,” said Sony Pictures Entertainment prexy of worldwide affairs Peter Schlessel.

The Sony/Focus partnership was announced by Focus prexy of international sales and distribution Thompson and Sony senior VP of international sales Peter Kujawski.

“Under Joe Wright’s direction, ‘Hanna’ is shaping up as a dynamic and highly commercial film and we are thrilled that Sony has been so quick to recognize its international potential,” Thompson said.

Ronan plays a girl trained by her father, an ex-CIA agent, to be the perfect assassin.

“Hanna” is produced for $30 million.

Wow! We have our first look of Saoirse as Hanna. Thanks to M for the tip.

Young females with a killer instinct seem to be in vogue right now at the movies, what with The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo and Kick-Ass. The next in line to be recruited for lethal duty is Saoirse Ronan, the 16-year-old Irish star of last year’s The Lovely Bones and an Oscar nominee as Keira Knightley’s troublemaking little sis in 2007′s Atonement.

In this exclusive first-look photo, reports USA TODAY’s Susan Wloszczyna, she is the title character in Hanna, raised from childhood to be the perfect assassin by her ex-CIA man father (Eric Bana) in rural Finland.

Cate Blanchett is the icy intelligence operative overseeing her mission. The Jason Bourne meets La Femme Nikita thriller is directed by Joe Wright, who showed a flair for intense action during the Dunkirk beach scene in Atonement, and is due next year.
