Bryan Cranston will reunite with Brad Furman who directed him in "The Lincoln Lawyer". The former "Breaking Bad" star is attached to star in the investigative thriller "The Infiltrator" from Relativity International.

"The Infiltrator" is based on an autobiography by Robert Mazur. Cranston will play Mazur, a Customs and Excise Agent who also goes under the alias Bob Musella. Mazur assumes the life of a hot-shot money launderer in order to trap Colombia's most corrupt bankers and mafia members.

Ellen Brown Furman wrote the screenplay while Good Films' founder Miriam Segal produces. Relativity International will shop the project to distributors at the American Film Market. Principal photography will begin in January on locations in London, Paris and Florida.

"Brad and I have invested a great deal of time ensuring that the casting on this film is absolutely perfect and we feel we've done just that. Bryan's talent is immeasurable and he continues to demonstrate his versatility and skill as an actor. 'The Infiltrator' is a film that demands a dynamic and complex leading man and we could not be more excited to have him on board," Segal said in a statement.

Camela Galano, president of Relativity International, said, "Relativity International is thrilled to build our relationship with Good Films and bring The Infiltrator to audiences worldwide. We are excited to work with the talented filmmakers and star Bryan Cranston on a film that delivers edge-of-your-seat thrills."
