Killing Them Softly (Nov. 30)
Having worked with Brad Pitt on 2007's The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford, writer-director Andrew Dominik knew just who to call when he was looking for a hitman for his gritty new thriller. Pitt plays a hired gun tailing two not-so-bright hoodlums (newbie Scoot McNairy and Animal Kingdom's Ben Mendelsohn) who rob a Mob-protected poker game. How did Dominik get Pitt to sign on? ''It was all very simple. I texted Brad, asking if he was interested, and he wrote back 'Yes,' '' says Dominik. ''We basically worked the whole thing out via text message over half an hour.'' —Sara Vilkomerson
