Shane Black (Iron Man 3, Kiss Kiss Bang Bang) will direct, and Ryan Gosling and Russell Crowe will star in the crime thriller The Nice Guys set up at Warner Bros Pictures. Filming will begin later this year on the dramatic movie written by Anthony Bagarozzi and produced by Joel Silver.

The Nice Guys will be opening during the busy comic book-inspired summer 2016 season on June 17th.

“Ever since we did Kiss Kiss Bang Bang, I’ve been eager to work with Shane again, and with this film, we made it happen,” said Silver, discussing reuniting with Black. “It’s a terrific script written in Shane’s great cinematic voice. With Russell and Ryan on board, I know we’re in for another wild ride.”

The Plot:

The Nice Guys takes place in 1970s Los Angeles when down-on-his-luck private eye Holland March (Gosling) and hired leg-breaker Jackson Healy (Crowe) must work together to solve the case of a missing girl and the seemingly unrelated death of a porn star. During their investigation, they uncover a shocking conspiracy that reaches up to the highest circles of power.
