Magic Mike was a big success for Joe Manganiello, who managed to raise his profile far beyond just True Blood fans. Now THR reports that he’s in negotiations for a another big project, the Arnold Schwarzenegger thriller Breacher.
The is about a team of DEA agents who pull off a lucrative heist disguised as a routine drug raid. Even though they think their secret is safe, the 10 team members start to get killed off, one by one. Joe Manganiello will play Grinder, one of the DEA agents who wants to come clean and tell the police about their illegal raid. Sam Worthington, Terrence Howard, and Dawn Olivieri also star as members of the unit.
David Ayer (End Of Watch) is set to direct from a screenplay by Skip Woods. Filming will begin this October in Atlanta.
