Shawn Levy is staying in the Ryan Reynolds business, as the filmmaker has been tapped to direct the untitled heist movie that recently sparked a bidding war and ultimately landed at Netflix, TheWrap can confirm.

This will be the fourth feature Levy has made with Reynolds, following “Free Guy,” “The Adam Project” and the upcoming third “Deadpool” film, slated for release in 2024.

The untitled heist flick is written by Dana Fox (“Cruella”), but plot details are being kept under wraps, with Netflix merely describing it as a “high-concept ensemble action comedy film.”

Levy will also join the movie as a producer via his 21 Laps, joining a producing team that includes Reynolds, via Maximum Effort, and Simon Kinberg and Audrey Chon through Genre Films.
