Wild Card Gets January 30th Release Date

Just a little sitrep for our manly readers here.

Jason Statham’s next movie, “Wild Card”, now has a release date.  The movie will hit theatres and be available on demand on Janury 30th 2015.  It is not clear as yet just how wide the theatrical release will be, but the dual on demand release probably suggests a limited run.

Statham will star alongside Milo Ventimiglia and Anne Heche as a recovering gambling addict who takes a job offering protection to his friends. It was written by William Goldman, who wrote the screenplay for the original 1986 movie.

Nick Wild, an ex-marine and gambling addict, goes into the protection business but plans to leave Las Vegas for a better life. When his last girlfriend, Holly, is found beaten and left for dead, he agrees to help revenge her. He will soon discover that the guilty man is Danny DeMarco, a member of a powerful mob family.
