Focusd Instead

Not that long ago, Ben Affleck and Kristen Stewart were supposed to do it.

Work together, that is.

But then he dropped out of the project – a movie titled Focus, about a young grifter who teams up with an experienced con artist for a big-payday job – and now comes word that she’s also stepped aside.

So what’s a project to do to live to die another day? My, call on Will Smith, of course.

Smith is thisclose to nabbing the part of the seasoned criminal.

No word on who could be coming on board to replace K. Stew.
