Aronofsky will direct the pic, which is based on the book by Charlie Huston. The script will be written by Huston, with Protozoa producing.
The film follows Hank Thompson (Butler), a burned-out former baseball player, as he’s unwittingly plunged into a wild fight for survival in the downtown criminal underworld of ‘90s New York City. It is unknown who Bad Bunny will play.
The cast also includes Zoë Kravitz, Regina King, Matt Smith, Liev Schreiber and Will Brill.
Bad Bunny recently wrapped his 46-date Most Wanted Tour, which grossed about $208M and sold more than 700,000 tickets, breaking records in 16 venues. His latest album, Nadie Sabe Lo Que Va a Pasar Mañana, debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 and became the year’s most-streamed album on Spotify in both a single day and week.
He hosted and was the musical guest on Saturday Night Live in October and co-hosted the annual Met Gala in May.
Caught Stealing marks a reunion for the studio and Bad Bunny as Sony was the one to give his big acting break by casting him opposite Pitt in Bullet Train. He made his on-screen debut in 2021 on the hit Netflix series Narcos: Mexico and most recently was seen in the Amazon film Cassandro, opposite Gael Garcia Bernal, which premiered at the Sundance Film Festival. He also will executive produce the upcoming Netflix adaptation of They Both Die at the End, a book by Puerto Rican author Adam Silvera.
Bad Bunny is repped by UTA and Rimas Entertainment.
