Stiller to do Trump Heist

February 17, 2010 by Jacob

Ben Stiller is reportedly interested in a new movie that was once offered to Eddie Murphy.

Apparently, Stiller is currently negotiating to star in the Universal Pictures movie Trump Heist. The movie, which may be retitled Tower Heist, will be about a group of con artists who think up of a plan to swindle the people who live in the upscale Trump Tower in New York.

As I have previously mentioned, Eddie Murphy was attached to this movie as the lead star. He was supposed to co-star with other black comics Chris Rock, Chris Tucker and Dave Chappelle. But with Stiller now taking over, the script is being rewritten and a new direction is going to be taken.

Brett Ratner is said to be attached to direct the movie.
