Oscar winner Will Smith is attached to star in Sugar Bandits, which is one of the buzziest packages at the EFM market this week in Berlin.
The market’s biggest budget project — we hear it’s in the $80M range — is understood to follow a former Special Forces solider who joins an elite, vigilante squad aiming to wipe out the drug trade in Boston, but soon learns things are not what they seem.
Years ago the project was being set up at Universal with Joe Carnahan directing but is now launching in the independent market-place.
The action-crime pic is based on the screenplay and novel Devils In Exile by Chuck Hogan (The Town).
