“We are lucky to have an amazing caliber of actors and writer/director David Ayer on The Tax Collector,” Mark Ward, Chief Acquisitions Officer of RLJE Films, said in a statement.
The film follows David (Bobby Soto, Narcos: Mexico) and Creeper (LaBeouf), “tax collectors” for the Los Angeles crime lord Wizard who collect his cut of the profits from local gangs’ illicit dealings.
It’s been nearly two years since we last heard word about David Ayer’s reunion with Shia LaBeouf The Tax Collector and now word has come in that RLJE Films has acquired the crime thriller for U.S. theatrical release, according to Deadline.
When Wizard’s old rival returns to the City of Angels, the business is upended and David is put in a fight to protect his family.
