Takers, a new action film produced by FAMU alumnus Will Packer, hits theaters today.
Takers revolves around a notorious group of criminals (Idris Elba, Paul Walker, T.I. Chris Brown, Hayden Christensen and Michael Ealy) who continue to baffle police by pulling off perfectly executed bank robberies. They are in and out like clockwork, leaving no evidence behind and laying low in between heists. But when they attempt to pull off one last job with more money at stake than ever before, the crew may find their plans interrupted by a hardened detective (Matt Dillon) who is hell-bent on solving the case.
In a interview Packer said he’s aiming for another #1 box office hit, similar to Obsessed and Stomp the Yard (which he just finished filming a sequel to).
“I've got two No. 1 films under my belt, and I'm already claiming it (Takers) to be the No. 1 movie in the country this weekend,” Packer said.
