In the upcoming crime-thriller Life of Crime, ex-prison inmates Ordell Robbie (Mos Def) and Louis Gara (John Hawkes) join forces for one big score: To kidnap the wife (Jennifer Aniston) of a wealthy man. The only problem is her husband doesn’t want to pay her ransom. Look for it in theaters on August 29th, 2014.

Written and directed by Daniel Schechter (Supporting Characters), Life of Crime follows the past adventures of Ordell and Louis, previously played by Samuel L. Jackson and Robert De Niro, respectively, in Quentin Tarantino’s Jackie Brown. Like the latter, Life of Crime is also based on a novel by Elmore Leonard called The Switch. The film also stars Isla Fisher, Tim Robbins and Will Forte.

Updates: Watch the first trailer for Life of Crime.

THE MOVIE: In Keith Parmer’s (Mob Rules) action-thriller Swelter, Jean-Claude Van Damme plays a member of a bank robbing gang that manages to steal a cool $100 million before some of them are apprehended by the police. Flash forward ten years and Van Damme is now an earnest, hard-working sheriff in a small town… with no memory of his criminal past. But what happens when his old crew rolls into town, anxious to find out where he hid their payload? Swelter also stars Josh Henderson, Brad Carter, Alfred Molina and Lennie James.

Updates: Expendables Premiere once again has some official stills. In addition, they have an interview with the film’s writer/director Keith Parmer. Parmer suggests that one of his next projects could be a ‘Taken by way of Hitchcock’ movie with Van Damme, titled Remember Paris.

Scope out the new official poster for Swelter, which seems to confirm that Jean-Claude will plays a supporting role rather than a major one in the film. | Cew behind-the-scenes featurette.

BREAKING NEWS: Amazon.com has an August 12, 2014 pre-order for the Blu-ray or DVD. Until then, don’t miss the trailer for Swelter.
