Kurt Russell Is Going to Be in a Cryptocurrency Movie😎

Hollywood star Kurt Russell is one of a number of performers set to star in an upcoming indie film about cryptocurrencies.
The film, entitled Crypto, will feature Russell as well as Alexis Bledel, Jeremie Harris and Luke Hemsworth, among others. The Hollywood Reporter notes that the film focuses on a young anti-money laundering agent, played by Beau Knapp, who returns to his hometown in New York to investigate a case of corruption and fraud. Russell is playing the father of Knapp's character, according to press materials.

Crypto's producers are calling it "a thriller in the vein of The Firm and The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo" – but with a decidedly cryptocurrency-focused twist. The film was written by Carlyle Eubank and David Frigerio.

"Cryptocurrency has captured the attention and imagination of consumers and entrepreneurs all over the world but has never been explored in film in such a nuanced and exciting way," Jordan Yale Levine, one of the producers for Crypto, was quoted as saying.

The independent film is currently shooting in New York with a release date not yet announced.
