The last we heard of Suicide Squad director David Ayer was the intriguing news that his fantasy crime film Bright is receiving a sequel from Netflix. The film was panned by critics, but created waves throughout the streaming community, breaking viewership records.
Deadline reports that the divisive director will be returning to his roots, partnering up with underrated performer Shia LaBeouf to star in his next project. Likened to Training Day and End of Watch, the thriller will be titled Tax Collector.
Ayer has been hit or miss as of late, with his attempts to succeed in blockbuster entertainment being mixed at best. It is with his dramas and lower budget features in which he excels the most. On the other hand, Shia LaBeouf as found great success starring in very under the radar independent films, and which his the latest performances have been critically applauded. Hopefully this film will give him the spotlight he deserves as a talent, after years of avoiding it
