Ritchie to Direct Another Gangster Film

[Shane]

LOS ANGELES (Hollywood Reporter) - British filmmaker Guy Ritchie has signed on to direct the gangster odyssey "Static."


The story centers on a wrongly imprisoned gangster who, with the help of his loyal posse, must make his way across town through crooked cops and rival gangs in order to testify against the dirty cops who put him away.


Ritchie also wrote and directed "Snatch" and the ill-fated vehicle for his wife Madonna , "Swept Away," for Columbia. His other credits include the critically acclaimed indie "Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels," and the Las Vegas-set crime caper "Revolver."

Great to have you aboard, Gank. Thanks for the valuable input.

If you haven't had a chance to see Snatch or Lock, Stock, and Two Smoking Barrels, I would highly recommend them.
