DESCRIPTION: (from Showtime's press release, September 2023) SHOWTIME today released the official trailer and key art for the upcoming original film HEIST 88, led by two-time Emmy Award-winning actor Courtney B. Vance (The People v. O.J. Simpson: American Crime Story, Lovecraft Country). The compelling crime drama, inspired by one of the largest bank robberies in U.S. history, is produced by MTV Entertainment Studios, Bassett Vance Productions and Gunpowder & Sky and will stream on the Paramount+ with SHOWTIME plan on Friday, September 29, ahead of its linear debut on SHOWTIME on Sunday, October 1, at 9 p.m. ET/PT. Inspired by true events, HEIST 88 is the unbelievable story centered on Jeremy Horne (Vance), the criminal mastermind with an innate ability to convince anyone to do just about anything and who decides to pull one last job before going to prison. He recruits four young bank employees to steal close to $80 million dollars in a daring and brazen assault on the U.S. banking system. The film takes place in a time before widespread computerization and the vast cybersecurity of today. It reunites Vance with Keesha Sharp, who portrayed Dale Cochran in the award-winning limited series The People v. O.J. Simpson: American Crime Story, and Bentley Green, who recently starred alongside Vance in the drama series 61st Street. HEIST 88 also stars Keith David (The Nice Things), Xavier Clyde (City on Fire), Nican Robinson (Beef) and Precious Way (Days of our Lives). |
