A-Team and The Grey helmer Joe Carnahan is lining up a new project, as THR reports he is in talks to direct Sugar Bandits for Universal Pictures, an adaptation of Chuck Hogan’s novel Devils In Exile.
The book is about on Neal Maven, an Iraq War veteran who is having a hard time finding work after the war in his hometown of Boston. He teams up with a group of fellow veterans, who rob drug dealers for their money, while destroying the illegal drugs at the same time.
It isn’t known when the film might shoot, or whether it’ll be Carnahan’s next film, although it may well be as he recently dropped out of a remake of Death Wish, which freed up his schedule.
