Working with acclaimed director Darren Aronofsky has always been hand-in-hand with the start of Austin Butler’s acting career, and a chance to collaborate emerged with Caught Stealing, Aronofsky’s latest crime film. “The first thing I was ever cast in was a student film,” Butler says. “I asked the director of that movie who his favorite director was, and he said Darren Aronofsky. Since I was a child, I had this thing in my head where I wanted to work with Darren.”

Acclaimed director Darren Aronofsky is widely known for his dark dramas, like Requiem for a Dream and Black Swan. In Caught Stealing, Aronofsky presents a change in pace by making a movie that is “first and foremost fun—a movie that for two hours would fully distract and hold your attention, and while you’re at the theater, you have a great time.”
Aronofsky has been interested in working on the project for years, with the novel of the same name by Charlie Huston being the inspiration. “I was so entertained and pumped by the book when I first read it 18 years ago,” he says. “Then a bunch of time passed, and Charlie tracked me down with an email out of the blue—they now controlled the book and had written a screenplay.”
He was just supposed to watch the cat. Now he's running for his f**king life. Darren Aronofsky is back in the helm for his new film Caught Stealing. The film stars Austin Butler, Zoë Kravitz, Matt Smith, and Benito A. Martinez Ocasio (Bad Bunny).
