Russell Crowe Set To Star in a New Thriller Titled POKER FACE
Russell Crowe is set to star in a new thriller titled Poker Face, which is coming from director Gary Fleder. It sounds like it could end up being a solid film.
Crowe plays and character named Jake in the film, “a tech billionaire who gathers his childhood friends to his Miami estate for what turns into a high stakes game of poker. Those friends have a love hate relationship with the host, a master game-player/planner, and he has concocted an elaborate scheme designed to bring a certain justice to all of them. However, Jake finds himself re-thinking his strategy when his Miami mansion is overtaken by a dangerous home invader whose previous jobs have all ended in murder and arson.”
This seems like a great project for Crowe, who most recently starred in the road rage thriller Unhinged. The movie was written by Stephen M. Coates and it’s set to start shooting late next month in Sydney, Australia.
