Taken star and Oscar nominee Liam Neeson is in talks to lead the project alongside a collection of fast-ascending actors including Never Rarely Sometimes Always breakout Talia Ryder, Noah Jupe ( A Quiet Place ), Whitney Peak ( Gossip Girl ), Jack Dylan Grazer ( It ) and newcomer Deacon Phillippe, son of Reese Witherspoon and Ryan Phillippe.
Neeson will play ex-bank robber Danny, whose teenage granddaughter Paige (Ryder) means the world to him. So when she overhears that his former gang is pulling him back in for one more score to pay a debt, she comes up with the only logical solution: She enlists her three ride-or-die best friends to rob the bank the day before so he doesn’t have to.
Set to be directed by Frankie Shaw ( SMILF ), and based on the graphic novel by Matthew Rosenberg and Tyler Boss, the film was adapted by Matt Robinson with revisions by Frankie Shaw.
It was developed and co-financed by Erik Feig’s Picturestart, who will also produce with Seth Rogen’s Point Grey Pictures and Black Mask Studios.
