Emma D'Arcy, Ewan Mitchell, and Matt Smith against a fiery background
The Big Picture Darren Aronofsky's next project is shaping up to be his starriest yet as the upcoming crime thriller has expanded its call sheet with two additional powerhouse names. House of the Dragon star Matt Smith and Ray Donovan alum, Liev Schreiber are the latest to join Caught Stealing, Deadline reports. The line-up of stars for the high-profile project already includes heavyweight talents such as Austin Butler, Zoë Kravitz, and Oscar-winner Regina King.
Caught Stealing will play out its thrills in the criminal underworld of ‘90s New York City. Per the official synopsis, the movie will follow Hank, a burned-out retired baseball player working as a bartender in Manhattan’s Lower East Side. Hank's mundane life gets upended when he encounters some bad guys while working at the bar, unwittingly plunging him into a wild fight for survival.
The crime thriller will be led by Butler, who will play Hank. Other than his leading role, other character details, including Smiths' and Schreibers', are yet to be revealed. Aronofsky himself has teased the project as an "adrenaline-soaked roller-coaster ride." The filmmaker whose Protozoa Pictures is teaming with Sony Pictures for the production has gushed, saying he “can’t wait to start working with Austin and my family of NYC filmmakers.
Matt Smith and Liev Schreiber's Upcoming Projects After portraying, to much acclaim, the 11th doctor in Doctor Who, Matt Smith gained further recognition for his role as Prince Philip in Netflix's historical series The Crown, a performance for which he received a Primetime Emmy Award nomination. He currently stars as Prince Daemon Targaryen in the Game of Thrones prequel House of the Dragon.
Schreiber is best known for his work on Showtime’s Ray Donovan, a role he recently said he is open to returning to should the right opportunity present itself. He recently started in Wes Anderson’s Asteroid City and will next be seen as part of the large ensemble for Netflix’s murder mystery series The Perfect Couple featuring Nicole Kidman, Dakota Fanning, and Eve Hewson.
