Shia LaBeouf and Mel Gibson are set to star in the upcoming dark comedy Rothchild.
Rothchild centers on Shia LaBeouf as Becket Rothchild, who is the bastard son of a mother who was disowned by her wealthy family for eloping with a jazz musician.
There are nine Rothchild family members who stand in his way, including Whitelaw Becket (Mel Gibson), who is described as Becket’s “sinister grandfather.”
Both LaBeouf and Gibson are no strangers to controversy and they have both been pretty busy over the past few years.
