The new Kirk is being hired to counterfeit cash
Posted by Patrick Sauriol on Tuesday, October 13, 2009
While Star Trek leading man Chris Pine is now making a thriller with Denzel Washington called Unstoppable (and the Trek sequel is probably one year away from starting to film), Pine's agent is busy making a deal for his client's next paycheck. If things work out that job will be for Trek home studio Paramount Pictures and for a drama called The Art of Making Money.
The movie is based on a 2005 Rolling Stone article by Jason Kersten who eventually turned it into a book called The Art of Making Money: The Story of a Master Counterfeiter. As adapted by screenwriter Frank Baldwin, Pine would play a thief named Art Williams. We would get to see Art as he starts off as a lowly criminal and develops into a master counterfeiter.
D.J. Caruso, who lost Jack the Giant Killer to Bryan Singer and whose Y: The Last Man comic book adaptation has stalled, is in talks to direct Making Money. Paramount wants the movie filming early in 2010.
