Variety reports that Antonio Banderas will star in The Big Bang, a neo-noir detective story to be directed by Tony Krantz.

Richard Rionda Del Castro, Krantz and Erik Jendresen will produce the film, based on a script by Jendresen ("Band of Brothers"). Production begins in Spokane, Wash., in September.

Banderas stars as an L.A. private detective who's hired to find a missing stripper. The trail leads to the New Mexico desert, where the private eye finds a trail of bodies and contends with a brutal Russian boxer, three LAPD detectives and an aging billionaire looking to perfect the nuclear physics equivalent of the Big Bang.

Executive producing will be Patricia Eberle, Richard Salvatore and Ross Dinerstein.

This almost sounds like a rip-off of Richard Preston's book "Blasphemy," with just enough little tweaks to the film to not make it too obvious.

Uh, I saw this film already... it's called Yesterday Was A Lie. Seriously, are there no new ideas in Hollywood? Do you people just rip off EVERYTHING?
