Action filmmaker David Leitch and Amazon MGM Studios are teaming on the heist thriller “How To Rob A Bank,” and a new casting addition is a bit of a “Mad Max: Fury Road” reunion.
A report from Deadline has revealed that actress Zoë Kravitz (“The Batman”) is set to reunite with her “Fury Road” co-star Nicholas Hoult. The other names on the call sheet are comedian Pete Davidson (“The King of Staten Island”), Anna Sawai (“Shogun’, “Fast 9”), and Rhenzy Feliz (“The Penguin”). The latter actor, like Kravitz, is part of the world of Batman/Gotham that is being spearheaded by Matt Reeves.

Sadly, we’re still waiting on concrete plot details for “How To Rob A Bank,” other than it’s said to involve a group a young criminals that will be using social media to help plan out or document their heists.
Leitch, who worked on the original “John Wick,” has been doing his best to put out a fair volume of action films at a breakneck speed with previous efforts such as “The Fall Guy,” “Bullet Train,” “Atomic Blonde,” “Deadpool 2,” and “Hobbs & Shaw.” At the very least, audiences should expect to see strong visuals mixed alongside entertaining stunt work in “How To Rob A Bank.”
Speaking of Batman, Kravitz is expected to reprise the Selina Kyle role in “The Batman Part II” as we’re still waiting on when that DC Comics sequel goes in front of cameras. She’ll be seen opposite Austin Butler in Darren Aronofsky‘s NYC-set crime thriller “Caught Stealing,” coming to the big screen in late August, thanks to Sony Pictures.
