Benecio Del Toro has signed on to star in “Making Jack Falcone” reports Deadline Hollywood Daily.
The project is based on the true story of retired Cuban-born FBI agent Jack Garcia who infiltrated the New York mafia with such success that they were about to make him a “made man.” His work led to the arrest of 39 members of the New York mafia.
The project marks a reunion of sorts with three key personnel behind 2008’s “Che” – del Toro, director Steven Soderbergh and writer Peter Buchman. Buchman will pen the script but unlike “Che”, Soderbergh is only expected to produce rather than direct.
