Fox Searchlight has signed a deal with Limitless director Neil Burger to follow-up his thriller success with the crime drama Animal Rescue, according to Variety. No cast is attached as yet, but expect that to change fairly soon.
The drama follows a man who wants to leave his life of crime (everyone in movie seems to be just about to leave a life of crime). However he gets caught up in a murder that results from a loss at a pitbull fight.
Burger is also writing the screenplay, adapted from a short story by Dennis Lehane. There’s no news on when it might shoot and it may be a while, as the director is already juggling several other movies as his possible next project.
