American Empire

[kat]

"A beautiful young woman and her grunge-looking yet ultra-efficient hit man boyfriend race against time to forestall having to kill two friends falsely accused of "delusions of grandeur" and daring to steal from a new world crime boss. While seeking the truth and their own ultimate salvation, they expose us to a bizarre underworld of eccentric characters and political intrigue in this downward spiral of angst, violence & "dark comedy"

Hmm... Ed Burns is it it... Rachel Bilson... Freida Pinto and Jeremy Piven are also rumoured.... Not sure if it'll be a big role for her... Doesn't exactly grab me...

I just read the synopsis. And hopefully she's part of one of the two pairs that drive the film, I'm crossing my fingers she's the female rogue cop Lisa. If not, I'm guessing she's playing the small role of Jackie.

It's also a project greenlight film. They said it's "The best screenplay I have read since Pulp Fiction”, which is a really really good sign for Shannyn. Not to mention Andy Armstrong is directing.. that means action action and some big stunts.
