The story centers on a down-on-his-luck gambler (Ben Mendelsohn who starred in "Animal Kingdom," "Killing Them Softly") facing crushing debt who teams with a younger gambling addict (Ryan Reynolds) in an attempt to change his luck. The two set off on a road trip through the South with visions of winning back what has been lost.
Reynolds came into the star following the departure of Jake Gyllenhaal.
Fleck and Boden will direct from a screenplay they wrote.
John Lesher, Jamie Patricof and Lynette Howell are producing the pic
