Wesley Snipes and Mario Van Peebles, who teamed up in
New Jack City, are reuniting for
Hard Luck, according to the Hollywood Reporter.
Cybill Shepherd is joining Snipes, who is in final talks to topline the pulpy thriller, which Van Peebles is directing.
Hard Luck is described as a quirky thriller following three converging story lines involving bootleggers, a serial killer and drug dealers. Snipes will play a former drug dealer who is trying to go straight but comes across a stash of stolen drugs. Shepherd will play Cass, a middle-aged suburban housewife who hides a sadistic and vicious streak.
