Hollywood Plays Poker

Hollywood jumps on the poker bandwagon with a string of celebrities and big screen card-based movies

Hollywood is betting big on a batch of poker films hoping to cash in on the betting boom. A handful of big budget poker movies are set for release in the next 12 months, but we reckon Lucky You could be the nuts.

Warner Brothers has pushed all its chips into the film, hiring CurtisHanson (LA Confidential) as writer/ director, and casting Hollywood A-listers Eric Bana, Drew Barrymore and Robert Duvall. Bana plays a poker pro fighting both his personal demons and his way through the 2003 World Series of Poker with help from casino lounge singer Barrymore.
