Director Brett Ratner (
Rush Hour) has signed on to direct
Josiah's Canon, according to Variety, with no actors currently attached.
The movie is based on a bank heist flick with a twist. A man, who is also a survivor of the Holocaust, leads a team of world-renouned bank robbers to crack the safe of a Swiss bank. The leader of the robber believes that the Swiss bank has been holding the money that Jews deposited before they were murdered by Hitler's reign of terror, making it an ethical crime that needs to be committed.
He is going to start working on
Josiah's Canon after he finishes up
After The Sunset which stars Pierce Brosnan, Woody Harrelson and Salma Hayek, which he should finish up by middle of next year.
