Academy Award winners Morgan Freeman and Tommy Lee Jones will star in Academy Award nominee Ron Shelton’s Villa Capri. The film is being financed by Entertainment One (eOne) and Endurance Media. Billy Gerber and Endurance’s Steve Richards are producing. John Mass and Alan Simpson are executive producers on the film. Principal photography for the project is slated to begin in New Mexico this summer.

eOne will directly distribute the action comedy in Canada, the UK, Australia/New Zealand, Benelux and Spain. Sierra/Affinity will represent foreign sales for the remaining international rights starting at the 2016 Cannes Film Market.

Villa Capri is a two-hander action comedy, in the vein of Midnight Run about an ex-FBI agent (Jones) and an ex-mob lawyer in the witness protection program (Freeman) having to put aside their petty rivalry on the golf course to fend off a mob hit.
