Jared Leto eyeing serial killer role opposite Denzel Washington in The Little Things

Jared Leto is reportedly in early talks to play a murderer, opposite Denzel Washington and Rami Malek in The Little Things.

Variety sources claim the Dallas Buyers Club actor is close to sealing a deal to play a serial killer in the upcoming film, which will star Washington and Malek as cops.

John Lee Hancock, who directed The Blind Side, has been hired to write and direct the project, which begins filming later this year (2019).

The Little Things follows Washington’s troubled deputy sheriff Deke, and his detective ally as they attempt to catch Leto’s character.
