I can only assume the end result of Good People is that it’s a generic action thriller considering it’s got a pretty solid cast beginning with James Franco and Kate Hudson who find their downstairs tenant dead and 200,000 pounds worth of cash stuffed in his ceiling. When they decide to keep the money from the cops (Tom Wilkinson) the bad guy (Omar Sy) comes after them.
[amz asin=”B001D6FIPW” size=”small”]Snowpiercer and Before the Devil Knows Your Dead screenwriter Kelly Masterson wrote the screenplay based on Marcus Sakey‘s novel. Henrik Ruben Genz (“The Killing”) directs.
Sakey recently saw his novel “Brilliance” optioned as a potential starring vehicle for Will Smith so his is a name generating some heat as of late.
Millennium Films will release the picture later this year, but no firm release date has yet been set. Check out the trailer below and see what you think.
Young American couple Tom and Anna Reed (James Franco and Kate Hudson) fall into severe debt while renovating Anna’s family home in London. As the couple faces the loss of their dream to have a house and start a family, they discover that the tenant in the apartment below them has been murdered and he left behind a stash of cash–$400,000 worth. Though initially hesitant, Tom and Anna decide that the plan is simple: all they have to do is quietly take the money and use only what’s necessary to get them out of debt. But when they start spending the money and can’t seem to stop, they find themselves the target of a deadly adversary–the thief who stole it–and that’s when very bad things start happening to good people.
