Masi Oka Joins Blackjack Thriller “21″

By Sam | January 2, 2007 (5:09 am) | More: Cast: Masi Oka (as Hiro Nakamura)

From the Hollywood Reporter:

Masi Oka, the breakout star of NBC’s rookie hit “Heroes,” is putting on his poker face for the casino-set thriller “21.” The film is inspired by the true story of a group of men who learned the art of card counting and won millions of dollars gambling. Oka is in talks to play a supporting role. The Columbia Pictures project is based on Ben Mezrich’s best-seller “Bringing Down the House: The Inside Story of Six M.I.T. Students Who Took Vegas for Millions.”

Jim Sturgess will star in the long-gestating project, which picked up steam last year when director Robert Luketic dropped out of a big-screen adaptation of “Dallas” to take the helm of “21.” The blackjack tale is scheduled to begin shooting in February in Boston and Las Vegas.
