MICHAEL KEATON, sebbene in version(e) cam(m)eo, va ad arricchire il cast di THE WHISPER MAN con Bob DE NIRO
From Deadline:
Netflix and AGBO’s adaptation of the Alex North novel The Whisper Man isn’t done adding star power to it’s ensemble as sources tell Deadline Michael Keaton is set to join the ensemble of the feature adaptation of the pic starring Robert De Niro. John Carroll Lynch, Hamish Linklater, Owen Teague and Acston Luca Porto are also on board joining De Niro as well as Adam Scott and Michelle Monaghan. While sources stress it falls under a cameo credit, the idea of the two legendary heavyweights appearing in a movie together for the first time since Jackie Brown should excite fans of both actors.
James Ashcroft is set to direct, with Ben Jacoby and Chase Palmer adapting the script. Anthony Russo, Joe Russo, Angela Russo-Otstot and Michael Disco will produce for AGBO, marking the sixth film out of Netflix and AGBO’s ongoing partnership.
Based on North’s New York Times bestselling novel, The Whisper Man revolves around a widow crime writer who, after his 8-year-old son is abducted, looks to his estranged father, a retired former police detective, for help, only to discover a connection with the decades-old case of a convicted serial killer known as “The Whisper Man.”
