Los Angeles:
Hollywood veteran Al Pacino is gearing up to play a hedge fund magnate in upcoming financial thriller Arbitrage opposite Eva Green and Susan Sarandon.
Written and to be directed by Nicholas Jarecki, the fil is set to start filming in Gotham next spring, theHollywood Reporter said.
Michael Ohoven of 'Capote' fame is producing and financing through his Infinity Media banner. Kevin Turen andRobert Salerno also are producers.
Arbitrage will see The Godfather star play a hedge fund magnate, who is desperate to complete the sale of his trading empire to a major band before his fraud is exposed.
But things are not easy as a bloody error forces him to turn to the most unlikely corner for help.
Hollywood seems to have taken a shine to stories about financial system post the economic slowdown in 2008. Filmmaker Oliver Stone centred his 'Wall Street' sequel around the crisis with Michael Douglas reprising his role as Gordon Gekko.
Pacino will also be seen in Adam Sandler comedy Jack and Jill.
