Tiffany Haddish, Tye Sheridan and Willem Dafoe are set to co-star with Oscar Isaac in “The Card Counter,” the new film from writer/director Paul Schrader and executive producer Martin Scorsese.
Isaac will play Tell, a would-be card shark living a spartan existence on the casino circuit. A chance meeting with Cirk (Sheridan) leads to Tell joining forces with him to help carry out a revenge plan against a military colonel (Dafoe).
With backing from gambling financier La Linda (Haddish), the trio goes on the road, from casino to casino, with the unlikely goal of winning a World Series of Poker tournament. Braxton Pope, Lauren Mann and David Wulf are producing.
