Bad boy John Travolta is back in 'Criminal Activities'
MANILA, Philippines — John Travolta marks his return in bad boy roles in the film "Criminal Activities."
In the film, his character reunites with a former classmates in the funeral of one of their batchmates.
This is when one of them mentions to the others an inside information on a stock that is a guaranteed lock to make them instant millionaires. Unfortunately, the deal goes south along with their investment. Things go from bad to worse as they found out that one of them borrowed his share of the money from a mobster.
“Criminal Activities” is an unpredictable, mind-blowing action thriller that marks the directorial debut of actor Jackie Earle Haley.
“It really came out of the blue," Haley replied when asked how he came to helm the movie. "I got a call from the producer, who is married to my manager. He really felt like I could direct it. He sent me the script and said he would understand if I didn’t respond to it. So, I read it and loved it. I was super excited about it. I called him back within three hours and was like, 'I’m in!' When Travolta agreed to come on board, we were off and running.”
Also part of the cast are Michael Pitt, Rebecca Da Costa, Dan Stevens, Rob Brown, Christopher Abbott and Travis Aaron Wade.
“Criminal Activities” opens this November 25 from OctoArts Films International.
