Ozark Season 3 standout Tom Pelphrey has been tapped to star as the infamous conman and fugitive Jason Derek Brown in American Murderer, opposite Tony-winner Idina Menzel, Ryan Phillippe and Jacki Weaver. Matthew Gentile wrote the script and is directing the indie, which is shooting in Salt Lake City.
The pic, which hails from the Traveling Picture Show Company and GiGi Films, is based on the true story of Brown, a charismatic crook who bankrolls his luxurious lifestyle through a series of scams. When his funds run low and his past catches up with him, he plots his most elaborate scheme yet and, in the process, becomes the FBI’s most unlikely — and elusive — top 10 fugitive. Phillippe will play the FBI agent tasked to hunt him down.
Kevin Matusow and Carissa Buffel will produce for Tpsc alongside Gia Walsh and Kara Baker under the GiGi Films banner.
