Morgan Freeman, Al Pacino, Danny DeVito, Helen Mirren to Star in Taylor Hackford Film SNIFF

Morgan Freeman Al Pacino Danny Devito Helen Mirren Picture

Oscar winners Morgan Freeman, Al Pacino, Helen Mirren and Danny DeVito are set to star in the upcoming film "Sniff" (an acronym for Senior Nursing Institute & Family Foundation) from director Taylor Hackford ("Ray", "Dolores Claiborne"). The script is written by Tom Grey ("Player Piano"). The project was unveiled as part of the Toronto International Film Festival market.

The film, which has been described as a stylish reinvention of the film noir, is set in a high-end luxury retirement community where two residents die under suspicious circumstances. Retired detective Joe Mulwray (Freeman) is pulled back into the action by his former partner William Keys (DeVito), and they uncover a hidden underworld of sex, drugs and murder in the wealthy community controlled by kingpin Harvey Stride (Pacino), and his femme fatale enforcer, The Spider (Mirren).

Adam Goodman and Matt Skiena will produce through their Dichotomy Creative Group, along with Hackford through his Anvil Films production shingle. Grey is also executive producing. Endeavor Content and CAA Media Finance are handling the U.S. rights at TIFF.

Production is expected to begin by early next year.
