Fans of Boardwalk Empire will know Jack Huston as Richard Harrow, while others might recognise him from The Twilight Saga: Eclipse or Factory Girl. But now he’s got a new role, as Deadline reports he’s signed up for David O. Russell’s next movie, which is currently untitled but was previously known as American Bullshit.
The film is based on the true story of an FBI sting operation known as Abscam, which uncovered a vast network of corruption along the East Coast. The story centres on con artist Melvin Weinberg (Christian Bale) a criminal who is forced to work with an FBI agent (Bradley Cooper) to unravel what’s going on. Jennifer Lawrence is set to play Bale’s wife, while Amy Adams, Jeremy Renner and Louis C.K. are also set to star.
Unfortunately there’s no news on exactly who Huston will play in the movie. Shooting is set to kick off soon, with a Christmas US release already set.
