Shooting is set to begin in February at Pinewood Studios in the Dominican Republic.

Nick Cassavetes is serving as executive producer for the project, which continues his longstanding, working relationship with Peluso, an associate producer of Cassavetes' Alpha Dog.

"The film traces the search for lost pirate treasure hidden inside a Caribbean Island hotel, which is days away from being demolished," a press release said.

McCallany is presently starring in the Netflix series Mindhunter. Fonda is known for his iconic roles in the films Easy Rider and Ulee's Gold.
