D’Arcy will play the mobster while Dobrev plays Wayans’ love interest.
Greenfield is producing with Simon Kinberg.
D’Arcy has been on the scene quite a bit playing Anthony Perkins in Searchlight’s “Hitchcock” and several roles in “Jupiter Ascending.” His show for A&E, “Those Who Kill,” was recently picked up for series.
