Redford Labeouf Keep Company

Actor Shia Labeouf is set to star in the political thriller The Company You Keep with Robert Redford says The Hollywood Reporter


The story centers on a former Weather Underground militant (Redford) who is forced out of hiding and goes on the run when a young journalist (Labeouf) uncovers his true identity.

The script will adapted by Lem Dobbs from the book by Neil Gordon.

Redford will also call action and produce the pic Bill Holderman and Nicolas Chartier.

Chartier had to say about the project below.

"This is an edge-of-your-seat thriller about real Americans who stood for their beliefs, thinking they were patriots and defending their country's ideals against their government. It is absolutely amazing to have Shia LaBeouf, arguably the brightest young star in Hollywood today paired with the global icon Robert Redford."

Production is scheduled to start in Vancouver this September
