Jim Caviezel (The Passions of The Christ) is in negotiations to star in Only in New York, an indie crime thriller that French helmer Pitof (Catwoman, Vidocq) will direct, says The Hollywood Reporter.
The script, written by Seth Zvi Rosenfeld and Geebee Dajani, follows a recently paroled street hustler looking for a new life and seeking redemption only to find his path blocked by the combustible melange of New York elements that once did him in.
The film will begin production in June in Toronto.
