Scott Free Productions, the company co-founded by brothers Tony and Ridley Scott, will shut down production of “The Counselor” this week after Tony Scott‘s apparent suicide on Sunday.
Ridley Scott is directing the project from a script by novelist Cormac McCarthy. The film, which stars Brad Pitt and Michael Fassbender, examines a lawyer (Fassbender) who decides to dabble in the drug trade along the Mexican border. Cameron Diaz, Javier Bardem and Penelope Cruz all have parts as well.
