Stage veterans James Gandolfini, Ray Liotta, Sam Rockwell, and Mark Ruffalo will co-star with Brad Pitt in the forthcoming film Cogan’s Trade, according to The Hollywood Reporter. Andrew Dominik is directing the project.

The movie, adapted from a novel by George V. Higgins, centers on a professional enforcer (Pitt), who investigates a heist that takes place during a high stakes poker game held under the protection of the mob.

The cast will also include Oscar winner (and 2011 Oscar nominee) Javier Bardem, as well as Casey Affleck, Vincent Curatola and Richard Jenkins
