Warner Bros. has set the Denzel Washington-Rami Malek police thriller The Little Things for a January 29, 2021, release.
John Lee Hancock is directing from his own script in which Washington portrays a burnt-out deputy sheriff from the Bakersfield area who teams with Malek’s crack LASD detective in pursuit of a serial killer.
Washington’s nose for the titular “little things” proves accurate, but his willingness to circumvent the rules places Malek’s character in a dilemma.
Jared Leto and Natalie Morales also star. Hancock and Mark Johnson are producing “The Little Things” and Mike Drake is executive producing.
