Gerard Butler is the latest person in talks to take over the male lead role in Albert Hughes' already packed flick Motor City, reports Dark Horizons, via Variety.
The story follows "a small-time hood framed and sent to prison by a drug trafficker, only to relentlessly exact revenge years later to get back the woman he loves." Recent Oscar nominee Gary Oldman and the ridiculously attractive Amber Heard have already confirmed roles in the film, that had both Dominic Cooper and Jake Gyllenhaal as the leads at different points.
Butler is obviously that bit older, so it's not clear how much the part will change to suit him.
