Jason O'Mara will star in One For The Money


Jason O'Mara will star opposite Katherine Heigl in crime thriller "One for the Money," from Lakeshore Entertainment and Sidney Kimmel Entertainment.

Story centers on Plum finding herself newly divorced, living in Trenton, N.J., and taking a job with her slimy cousin in the bail bond business. Her first big case is a local cop and former b.f., played by O'Mara, who's wanted for murder.

Sunjata's signed to portray a disciplined veteran bounty hunter.

Julie Ann Robinson's directing, and Liz Brixius is rewriting the adapted script. Producers are Lakeshore chair-CEO Tom Rosenberg and Gary Lucchesi, SKE chair Sidney Kimmel and Wendy Finerman ("The Devil Wears Prada").
