EXCLUSIVE: Sony Pictures Television is putting the limited series Jackpot into early development inspired by the hardscrabble life of Philly high-stakes gambler-turned-FBI confidential source RJ Cipriani (aka Robin Hood 702) who was the lynchpin in taking down a multi-million dollar drug ring.
Nicholas Stoller, and his Stoller Global Solutions partner Conor Welch, as well as Jamie Canniffe, are executive producing with Cipriani.
A gambler known for giving his winnings to the less fortunate, Cipriani’s chance encounter with an ex-girlfriend plunged him unwittingly into a money laundering scheme that ultimately led to one of the biggest cases in FBI history leading to over 1,000 arrests around the world.
Known to the FBI as “Jackpot”, the series follows the gambler as he navigates an insane web of characters who may just kill him and his family unless he can bring them down first.
