Bill Paxton Joins Daniel Radcliffe In Grand Theft Auto Flick

Bill Paxton has joined Daniel Radcliffe to star in a BBC Films-produced movie based on Sam Houser, the creator of popular video game “Grand Theft Auto”. The film will star Radcliffe as Houser as he tussles with Miami-based activist attorney, Jack Thompson, who tries [unsuccessfully] to get Houser to remove depictions of graphic violence from the video game – Paxton will play Thompson.

The as-yet-untitled movie begins shooting next week and is expected to have a 2016 release date.
