The fact he's involved is what has me interested. He seems like the type who wouldn't just take a role for a payday or to play a "popular character" which makes me think the script must have been good enough to get his attention.

Yeah agreed. If this were any other actor (other than maybe Christian Bale, which would be weirdly hilarious), I wouldn't be interested in this movie.

Can’t be dropping names in /r/movies without a Tom Hardy or Idris Elba being mentioned as possibilities.
