Guy Ritchie has signed on to rewrite and direct Static for Columbia Pictures.
The script was penned by Gran Gann and centers on a wrongly imprisoned gangster who, with the help of his loyal posse, must make his way across town through crooked cops and rival gangs in order to testify against the dirty cops who put him away. Ritchie is rewriting with Martin Askew.
