Shia LaBeouf to team with Robert De Niro in After Exile

Just when I think that Shia LaBeouf’s career is dead and buried, he makes a resurgence and nabs a role with Robert De Niro. Go figure.

The duo are set to play father and son in the upcoming crime drama “After Exile”, with Joshua Michael Stern (from the Steve Jobs biopic “Jobs”) to direct.

From Variety, LaBeouf will play an ex-con who, after being released from prison for killing an innocent man after a violent robbery, must re-enter his old life with his father (De Niro) in order to save his younger brother from a life of drugs and crime. De Niro will play another ex-con suffering from alcoholism and guilt.

LaBeouf is in the upcoming “Honey Boy“, and De Niro can be seen in “The Irishman”, as well as “Joker”.
