Mann Casts More Public Enemies
Marion Cotillard, Channing Tatum, Giovanni Ribisi, Stephen Dorff and Jason Clarke have joined the cast of Public Enemies for director Michael Mann.
The movie stars Chrisian Bale as Melvin Purvis, who was tapped by FBI chief J. Edgar Hoover to lead a manhunt for notorious gangster John Dillinger (Johnny Depp). The result was the establishment of the FBI as the United States’ first federal police force. Cotillard will play Dillinger’s lover, Billie Frechette, Tatum will play outlaw Pretty Boy Floyd, Ribisi will play Alvin Karpis, Dorff is near a deal to play Homer Van Meter, and Clarke will play John “Red” Hamilton. That quartet repped a Dillinger gang that knocked off banks all over the Midwest during the Depression.
Production begins in early March in Chicago from a script written by Ronan Bennett, Ann Biderman and Mann.
