“Oscar Isaac, Jason Momoa and Gerard Butler are set to star in crime thriller In the Hand of Dante, with Oscar nominee Julian Schnabel directing and Martin Scorsese among the executive producers. The film is in production in Italy and recently landed an Interim Agreement from SAG-AFTRA allowing it to film during the actors strike.

“Based on the novel by Nick Tosches, it follows the story of the original manuscript for The Divine Comedy emerging in the clutches of a black-market smuggling ring in the dangerous underbelly of New York City, and weary scholar Nick is called by the mob to authenticate it.”    — Justin Kroll, “Oscar Isaac, Jason Momoa & Gerard Butler To Lead Julian Schnabel’s In The Hand Of Dante“, Deadline, October 16, 2023
