Armie Hammer, Sir Ben Kingsley, John Malkovich, Michael Sheen, and Teresa Palmer have joined the crime thriller Cut Bank, a 2009 Black List script by Roberto Patino. This is a ridiculously crazy cast. The script must be amazing. Matt Shakman will make this his feature directorial début after being a TV director for over 10 years. The script is about “a young auto mechanic and former high school football star who wants to get the hell out of this tiny town frozen in time. His attempt to do so sets in motion a series of events that will change his life, and the life of Cut Bank, forever.” – Whatever that means… [Deadline]
Production is set to begin in the fall of 2012.
