Kurt Russell, Jay Baruchel, and Matt Dillon are confirmed to star in The Black Marks from Darius Films, and Dimension Films just announced they’ve picked up the heist comedy for US distribution. Jonathan Sobol wrote and will direct the film which is set to begin production this month.
 
The Plot:
 
Crunch Calhoun (Kurt Russell), a third rate motorcycle daredevil and semi-reformed art thief, agrees to get back into the con game and pull off just one more lucrative art theft with his untrustworthy brother Nicky (Matt Dillon). Crunch reassembles the old team and comes up with a plan to steal a priceless historical book, but the successful heist leads to another, far riskier, plan devised by Nicky. What the brothers don’t realize is they each have their own agenda and their plan goes awry in this con movie about brotherhood, honor and revenge.
