Four-time Oscar nominee Ed Harris will join Liam Neeson and Joel Kinnaman in WB's crime thriller "Run All Night," TheWrap has learned.

Jaume Collet-Serra is directing from a script by Brad Ingelsby ("Out of the Furnace"). Collet-Serra previously worked with Neeson on "Unknown" and "Non-Stop."

Neeson stars as an aging mob hit man who is forced to take on his former boss, the leader of a prominent criminal organization in Philadelphia.

Harris is in negotiations to play the syndicate's violent leader, who wants revenge for the death of his son.

Kinnaman co-stars as Neeson's estranged son, who witnesses a murder and spends one long night on the run with his father.

Vertigo Entertainment's Roy Lee is producing with Energy Entertainment's Brooklyn Weaver. Production will start this fall.

Harris, who recently starred in Michael Bay's "Pain & Gain" and the Soviet submarine thriller "Phantom," will soon be seen in Bong Joon-ho's sci-fi film "Snowpiercer" and heard in Alfonso Cuaron's WB movie "Gravity."  He also has Arie Posin's "The Face of Love" and the indie drama "Frontera" awaiting release.

Harris, who received Oscar nominations for "The Hours," "Pollock," "The Truman Show" and "Apollo 13," is repped by CAA and attorney Melanie Cook.

NEW YORK --  Husband and wife Ed Harris and Amy Madigan will star alongside Glenne Headly and Bill Pullman Off Broadway in The Jacksonian, Pulitzer Prize winner Beth Henley's darkly humorous play set in an early '60s Mississippi town poisoned by racism and madness.


Directed by Tony Award winner Robert Falls, the production will be staged as part of the New Group's 2013-14 season, with previews scheduled to begin in October at the company's regular home at Theater Row.

First produced at the Geffen Playhouse early last year, The Jacksonian stars Harris as a dentist exiled by his estranged wife (Madigan) to a seedy motel, where he encounters a gold-digging staffer and an untrustworthy bartender, played by Headly and Pullman, respectively.

All four lead actors reprise their role from the well-received West Coast premiere, with additional cast to be announced.
