Waltz Will Solve "True Crimes"

THR reports that Christoph Waltz is set to star in the thriller True Crime.


The film will adapt The New Yorker 2008 article by David Grann about the mysterious case of Krystian Bala a Polish writer who was convicted of murder. A cold case for years, the murder was described as the perfect crime. Bala was never a suspect, but he published a novel that described a murder that was strikingly similar to the one that had baffled local police for years.

Waltz is playing Polish police officer Jacek Wroblewski, who re-opens the case and is sucked into an underworld of sex rings and drugs.

The tone of the film is being compared to The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo.

Roman Polanski is a potential candidate to direct the film.

Brett Ratner, John Cheng and David Gerson are producing the pic
