At last! The big screen debut of Danger Mouse is upon us! All hail the mighty Penfold! All… Wait… What? Oh, sorry. The new Fox thriller Greenbacks has nothing to do with the heroic rodent’s toady nemesis, Baron Greenback.
It’s actually a Morocco-set drama that focuses on a huge conspiracy to wreck the world economy by mass-producing perfect counterfeit cash. Will Smith has signed up to play an American living abroad who catches wind of the plot.
Doug Cook and David Weisberg have penned the script – they’re best known for writing The Rock. It’s early days, so there’s no word yet on who might direct.
