Take The $$ And Run

Jason O'Mara, star of the short-lived American remake of "Life on Mars", has won the male lead in the crime thriller One for the Money says Variety.

An adaptation of the 1st of Janet Evanovich's Stephanie Plum‎ novels, sees Katherine Heigl star as the rather average single New Jersey girl and lingerie buyer recently laid off.

To make ends meet she sets out to become a file clerk at a Bail Bonds office but ends up taking the only position available - a bounty hunter.

O'Mara plays a local cop wanted for murder who just happens to be the guy that broke Stephanie's heart in high school.

Daniel Sunjata also stars as a disciplined veteran bounty hunter.

Karen McCullah Lutz and Kirsten Smith wrote the initial screenplay that Liz Brixius will polish.

Julie Ann Robinson is directing. Tom Rosenberg, Wendy Finerman and Gary Lucchesi are producing the adaptation
