Hollywood star Gerard Butler has booked another action-thriller titled "Copshop" as his next project.
The actor, who has action trilogy "Fallen" series to his credit, will share the screen with Frank Grillo in the feature film. According to The Hollywood Reporter, Joe Carnahan, who has helmed movies like "The Grey" and "The A-Team", will direct.
Copshop revolves around a small-town police station which becomes the unlikely battleground between a professional hitman (Butler), a smart rookie female cop, and a double-crossing con man (Grillo), who seeks refuge behind bars with no place left to run.
