Samuel L. Jackson will star in Same Kind of Different as Me, an adaptation of a nonfiction bestseller that has been adapted by screenwriters Roderick and Bruce Taylor (The Brave One).

Jackson will play Denver Moore, an ex-con drifter who develops an unlikely friendship with a wealthy Dallas art dealer named Ron Hall.

The book was written by Hall. Ralph Winter will produce through his 1019 Entertainment banner, with Veralux's Mark Clayman and Jennifer Gates. Jackson will be executive producer alongside Brad Reeves, Susana Zepeda and Todd Shuster.

Glad to see Samuel L Jackson hasn't been in many movies this year because he can suck it. Can't name any great movies he's been in can you?

Mike you have no clue about anything do you?
What a stupid question. Asking people if they can name a good Sammy L film.

The guy has been going for years and has more of a presence than most actors out there.
Why don't you just go back to your little corner and take the advise of Dat Dude.
