The video game adaptation of 'Kane & Lynch' will star Academy Award winner Jamie Foxx and Bruce Willis.

The game follows Kane (played by Willis), a death row inmate who, along with a schizophrenic killer named Lynch (played by Foxx), is sprung by Kane's former team so that he can retrieve a stolen fortune. Kane travels to Los Angeles, Japan and Cuba, with Lynch acting as the team's watchdog in order to save his wife and daughter.

The Hollywood Reporter stated that director Simon Crane will be helming the film, with Nu Image/Millenium in talks to finance and produce, and Lions Gate as the distributor.

The game was developed by IO Interactive and published by Eidor Interactive.

Daniel Alter and Adrian Askarieh are producing with Willis and his brother David Willis. The duo previously produced 'Hitman,' another video game adaptation.

Bruce is currently on the big screen opposite Tracy Morgan in the comedy, 'Cop Out.'

Foxx most recently appeared in the romantic comedy, 'Valentine's Day' opposite Jennifer Garner and Jessica Biel.
