Sylvester Stallone will star as a New Orleans hitman who teams with a New York City cop in the action picture “Headshot.”
Wayne Kramer (“The Cooler”) will direct “Headshot” from a script by Alessandro Camon (“The Messenger”). The film begins shooting in May in Louisiana and New York.
In the project, Stallone’s character teams with a young NYPD detective in a high-stakes investigation that leads from the dingy back alleys of New Orleans all the way to the power corridors of Washington, D.C.
The hitman and the cop, brought together by two vicious murders, take on all who stand in their way, and are willing to sacrifice everything to exact revenge.
Stallone was last in theaters in the sleeper hit “The Expendables.”
