Bryan CranstonBryan Cranston and Mila Kunis have been cast in Jackpot film adaptation. Will Gluck will take the helm as the director and Dave Callaham will serve as the screenwriter.

According to Deadline, this project will be a remake of a 2011 Norwegian film. Both movies feature a story by Norwegian thriller writer Jo Nesbø.

Here’s more from Empire Magazine: “Despite sounding like a comedy featuring business colleagues falling out over a shared lottery win, it’s actually hewing closer to something along the lines of Danish thriller Headhunters, since it follows the story of a man who wakes up in a strip bar clutching a shotgun and surrounded by dead bodies. And the police pointing their weapons at him.” (via Yahoo!)
