Al Pacino's Hangman: Sarah Shahi joins the cast

Sarah Shahi will join Al Pacino in Hangman, Johny Martin’s crime thriller, written by Michael Caissie and Charles Huttinger.

The 36-year-old actress, who has starred in ‘Fairly Legal’, ‘Person of Interest’ and ‘The Sopranos’, is set to play police Captain Lisa Watson, starring alongside Hollywood’s legend All Pacino, Karl Urban and Brittany Snow, among others.

The Movie is centered on a homicide detective, played by Pacino, who joins forces with a criminal profiler (Urban) to catch a serial killer whose crimes are inspired by popular children’s game Hangman.

In a previous interview discussing the cast, Martin said: "It’s every director’s dream to work with Al Pacino. Brittany Snow brings a fresh, instinctual presence to the production, while Karl Urban’s strength, instinct, and versatility heighten the action and this genre. This film is amazing and will appeal to a wide audience."
