Al Pacino, Christopher Walken and Alan Arkin will star in
Stand Up Guys, an action comedy being directed by Fisher Stevens, who won an Oscar for producing The Cove.
The project, which was formerly known as Old Timers, centers on two aging criminals, one of whom has been hired to kill his friend. They decide to enjoy one last night of debauchery in which they hit up a brothel, steal some cars and evade police but also face the choices they made in their lives. The project began life as a spec script by Noah Haidle.
