Mark Wahlberg will be playing the Parker role in Play Dirty, and we’ve got a feeling he will imbue the Parker character with a bit more of a likable personality than what we see in Westlake’s books. However, the general plot of Shane Black’s film should sound very familiar to anyone who is familiar with Westlake’s extensive output of crime novels.

In the film, Parker’s professional thief gets betrayed and left for dead, and in the course of trying to carry out his revenge, he stumbles onto the opportunity to pull off the heist of a lifetime.
