Samuel L. Jackson has officially signed on to lead the new action comedy movie The Honest Liar. Production will begin early next year. So what’s it about, well what we do know is, Jackson’s character is an actor tasked to teach rookie undercover cops on how to act like criminals. Starring alongside Jackson will be Andra Day and Edgar Ramirez.
“Nick DeFranco is an award-winning actor facing jail time when he falls for an undercover sting,” reads the synopsis (via Deadline). “Nick criticizes the undercover police for their terrible “acting’ that he can’t believe he fell for. He knew something was wrong and went for it anyway. Impressed by Nick’s acting ability, the Police Captain offers Nick probation instead of hard time, in return for teaching his team how to act like real dealers. Nick has no choice but to agree. When Nick gets involved with a female rookie, he finds himself playing amateur undercover cop and getting more involved than intended, putting them both in danger of blowing her cover with some dangerous criminals.”
