Variety are reporting that THE HANGOVER PART II star (which is still kicking butt in cinemas around the world) Bradley Cooper is set to star opposite Ryan Gosling in the new crime drama THE PLACE BEYOND THE PINES. The film will see Cooper playing a rookie police officer in the film.
Gosling will play a pro motorcycle rider who turns to bank robberies to support his newborn son when he crosses paths with Cooper’s cop, according to the trade.
Derek Cianfrance, the talented filmmaker who wrote and directed Gosling in BLUE VALENTINE co-scripted this with Ben Coccio. Sidney Kimmel Entertainment will finance the film and produce.
