The Real McCoy

Jeez. They certainly are keeping Chris Pratt busy.

The Jurassic World star has signed to carry a new bootlegging drama centering on sea captain Bill McCoy on his brawny, blockbuster-y shoulders.

The movie will chronicle McCoy’s rum-smuggling runs from the Bahamas to the United States during Prohibition.

“The real McCoy.” Ever heard of that expression? It came from him, for he claimed never to have paid for protection from the law or the mob, and because he always delivered uncut liquor. Just, you know...the real McCoy

A director has yet to be hired for this one, but something tells me the search should be a short one. Everyone wants to be in the Chris Pratt business these days.
