There is potential here for the kind of New York movie that was the stomping ground of one of Mangold’s favorite filmmakers, Sidney Lumet. Damon is attached to play Denny Malone, a NYPD detective who runs an elite crime fighting squad, but bends the law so often that he loses the line between good and evil and becomes ensnared in a pending corruption scandal.
The project landed in a seven figure Fox deal while the book was in galleys and before it became a juggernaut for the HarperCollins’ imprint William Morrow in 2017. The first script draft was by David Mamet, but Mangold has been working closely on the rewrite with. Scott Free’s Ridley Scott, The Story Factory’s Shane Salerno and Kevin Walsh are producing.is one of two high profile star cast projects that Mangold has been developing as a follow to.
donwinslow Terrific! I can't wait.
donwinslow Wow! Damon is gonna play a NYC Cop!
donwinslow Felicitations!!!
This was originally set for release March 1st 2019 but got delayed for James Mangold to make Ford Vs Ferrari
Stephen King quote it’s godfather with cops ?!? That’s fucjing awesome can’t wait for this shit ! Wonder what mangold does first going electric with Chalamet or this ? Damon gotta film last duel first anyway so maybe they do this after bob Dylan ?
This was the news I was looking for !!! Noiceeee mang0ld
TheInSneider well, this isn’t Justin Theroux but I’m personally stoked to see Damon attached. Best crime thriller (book) of the decade, and a meaty role that in Mangold’s hands could be ripe for a Damon oscar campaign....
Just finished the book and...
Loved the book. So glad it will be a movie.
Mazeltov donwinslow !
