Back in May we announced Guy Ritchie's (Snatch) next film titled RocknRolla, which will be another ensemble British gangsters flick. Today it was announced who makes up that ensemble: Gerard Butler, Tom Wilkinson, Thandie Newton, Chris "Ludacris" Bridges and Idris Elba. Quite an odd eclectic mix of actors, but sounds promising.

RocknRolla will start filming in July with a budget under $20 million and in the same fast-paced, low-budget style of Snatch and Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels. The story centers on a Russian mobster who orchestrates a crooked land deal, putting millions of dollars up for grabs and attracting all of London's criminal underworld.

Damn does this ever sound good, and now with a great cast, except for Ludacris, I'm unsure of him. I really hope we have another Snatch on our hands, because after 7 years I'm really looking forward to another incredible Guy Ritchie film.
