Issac Lands Escobar Lead Role

Oscar Isaac (Drive) will star as Colombian drug cartel kingpin Pablo Escobar in a new biopic says Deadline.


The film will see the man's rise to become the head of the largest criminal organization in the world.

Matthew Aldrich wrote the screenplay from which Brad Furman’s (The Lincoln Lawyer) set to call action

Scott Steindorff who will produce with Dylan Russell and Scott Lastaiti said the following “We’re showing the story of his family, the structure of his enterprise, his rise—the man had the largest criminal organization in the world. In the end, it was a war between Colombia and one man.”

Production begins in September in Colombia.
