An adaptation of author Irvine Welsh‘s book, the story follows Bruce Robertson (James McAvoy), a sex-obsessed, cocaine-addicted, bigoted Scottish police officer investigating a murder who gets sidetracked by his own peculiarities, worries, sexual conquests, practical jokes and hangups. Along the way he manipulates everyone in his path to secure a promotion and win back his wife and daughter.
Jamie Bell has been cast as his partner Ray Lennox.
The unusual book features such surreal elements as a monologue-spouting tapeworm residing within Bruce.
Jon S. Baird ("Cass") directs the project and revised screenplay.
Production begins next week in Scotland, Sweden, Belgium and Hamburg
