Denzel Washington is great with the Little Things.
The Oscar winner is attached to star in the cop thriller for Warner Bros.
The Blind Side writer-director John Lee Hancock is set to pen the feature that will see Washington play Deke, a burned out but gifted Kern County deputy sheriff who teams with a crack Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department detective, Baxter, to capture a serial killer.
Hancock, who is behind the recent release The Highwaymen, is also being eyed to helm the project.
Washington was most recently seen in Sony’s The Equalizer 2 and is set to take a step behind the camera to direct A Journal for Jordan, starring Michael B. Jordan.
Washington is repped by WME.
