A starry cast lead by Bruce Willis is gathering in Mobile, Alabama, ready for filming to begin in early December on action thriller The Prince.
The film sees Willis as Omar, a criminal with a grudge who is waiting for the return of a retired Vegas mob enforcer played by Jason Patric. Also reportedly on board the project are Curtis Jackson (50 Cent) and John Cusack. Brian A. Miller directs from a screenplay by Andre Fabrizio and Jeremy Passmore.
