Squeaky Gum Shoe

Antonio Banderas is set to star in a neo-noir film called "The Big Bang" says Variety.



Huh? Banderas is still making movies...Who knew?

Anyway--Banderas stars as an L.A. private detective who's hired to find a missing stripper. The trail leads to the New Mexico desert.

There the private eye finds a trail of bodies and contends with a brutal Russian boxer, three LAPD detectives and an aging billionaire looking to perfect the nuclear physics equivalent of the Big Bang.

Tony Krantz directs his first feature from a Erik Jendresen script. Patricia Eberle, Richard Salvatore and Ross Dinerstein serve as executive producers.

Sounds like a cross between Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas or Guy Ritchie's Snatch...

Filming kicks off in Spokane, Washington in September.
