Dylan O’Brien & Zoey Deutch To Star In ‘The Outfit’ For Focus Features

Two of Hollywood’s brightest young stars are teaming up with some filmmaking veterans for a new project recently acquired by Focus Features. As first reported by Deadline, Dylan O’Brien and Zoey Deutch are joining the cast of a new film produced by FilmNation Entertainment titled The Outfit.

The two actors will join The Trial Of The Chicago 7 standout Mark Rylance and Johnny Flynn (The Dig) in the film’s cast. The feature will serve as the directorial debut for the Oscar-winning writer of The Imitation Game, Graham Moore. Additionally, Moore penned the screenplay for The Outfit alongside Johnathan McClain (Mad Men). Scoop Wasserstein (Hijacked), Ben Browning (Promising Young Woman), and Amy Jackson (Supergirl) are on-board to produce as well.

The film begins in London’s world-famous Savile Row and follows Leonard, played by Rylance, a modest English tailor. Following a personal tragedy, Leonard ends up operating his own tailor shop in a sketchy neighborhood in Chicago. His work stalls until he begins making beautiful clothing for a family of vicious gangsters. The crime-drama will reportedly begin shooting in London in March 2021.
