Bound for Galveston

Nic Pizzolatto is on fiya thanks to his hit HBO drama True Detective.

So it only makes sense that for his next project the powers that be have paired the guys material with Rust and Bone star Matthias Schoenaerts, another hot up-and-comer.

The Belgian star is going to star in an adaptation of Pizzolatto’s Galveston novel, the story of a man who finds out that his loan-sharking, bar-owning boss wants him dead – on the same day that he is diagnosed with a terminal illness.

Things devolve in what are described as Cormac McCarthy-esque ways from that point forward.

Yes! I am sooo looking forward to seeing Schoenaerts explode in the most Fassbenderian way. And he has quite a docket of films ready for release to assist him in just that endeavor.
