Formerly titled Old Timers, the upcoming action movie Stand Up Guys has just added Al Pacino (the man known for The Godfather, and Heat, who recently appeared in Adam Sandler’s Jack and Jill) to its cast list, alongside Alan Arkin (Little Miss Sunshine), and Christopher Walken (Catch Me If You Can).
Following two aging criminals (one of whom has to kill his friend) who decide to have one last night on the tiles while reflecting on their lives; as they steal cars, visit a brothel, and get chased by the police; Stand Up Guys has been scripted by relative newcomer Noah Haidle, and is due to be directed by Fisher Stevens (Short Circuit), when filming starts this coming April.
