Burt Reynolds to Star in Poker Movie
08th of April 2006
With shooting under way in the first week of April the new poker themed movie that draws comparisons to "The Color of Money" poker fans are eager to see their favorite game accurately translated to the big screen. The actors hired to play poker players and supporting cast will get some help from the pros, such as Antonio "The Magician" Esfandiari and Phil the "the Unabomber" Laak, who will be playing themselves in the film. Burt Reynolds will star as the aging poker pro who takes a young prodigy under his tutelage and shows him the ropes. After a rift occurs between the pair they face each other off in the World Poker Tour. Other stars include Shannon Elizabeth, Tara Reid, and Charles Dunning.
