Anthony Mackie, Ben Mendelsohn, Emily Alyn Lind & Sharon Stone Star in David Mamet's New Film

Anthony Mackie Ben Mendelsohn Emily Alyn Lind Sharon Stone Star In David Mamets New Film

Anthony Mackie ("Captain America: Brave New World"), Ben Mendelsohn ("Dark Knight Rises"), Emily Alyn Lind ("We Were Liars") and Oscar nominee Sharon Stone ("Casino") have signed on to star in Pulitzer winner David Mamet's new film, a Hollywood satire based on his own Tony-winning play "Speed the Plow". The 1988 play starred Joe Mantegna, Ron Silver, and Madonna. Mamet directs from his own script.

The film will be set at the fictional American Prestige Studios, where junior executive Bob Grant (Mackie) is appointed to a head of production role. Grant is emotionally and philosophically unsuited to a job overseeing the production of schlock, but is aided, or impeded, by a studio time server, Charlie Fox (Mendelsohn); an office temp, Karen (Lind); and crazed movie star Gemma Speed (Stone).

The film is produced by Filmopoly's Vince Jolivette ("The Disaster Artist") and Richie Hill ("Hunting Season"); Steak & Rosé's Tyler Payne and Douglas Riggs ("Perfect"); Jiarui Guo and Anthony Short. Executive producers are Alan B. Bursteen, Dawn Bursteen, Steve and Jack Greenberg of Pangaea Studios, Emily Hunter Salveson, and Angie Sanfilippo.

Mamet isbest known for his hit play "Glengarry Glen Ross", which he also adapted for the big screen. He also penned scripts for films like "The Postman Always Rings Twice", "The Untouchables", "Ronin", "The Edge" and "Wag The Dog". His directing filmography includes "The Spanish Prisoner" and "Heist".
