Depending on when negotiations end I am sure Fox 2000 will back out of this deal if Russell Crowe goes to jail for throwing a phone at someone but until then Crowe is in negotiations to star in A Good Year for director Ridley Scott.
Crowe would play an investment banker who loses his job and moves to Provence to take over a failing vineyard owned by his just-deceased uncle — a move complicated by the arrival of an unknown American cousin.
The film is expected to go into pre-production soon as Scott is already scouting locations.
