Gerard Butler and Vin Diesel are being linked to roles in Kane & Lynch.

The movie will be a big screen adaptation of the new video game and will see director F. Gary Gray. This will be the second time that Gray had worked with Butler after shooting Law Abiding Citizen.

According to The Hollywood Reporter an offer has already been made to Diesel for Lynch, while Butler is believed to be interested in the role of Kane.

The movie is based on a video game which follows Kane (Butler), a death row inmate who breaks out of prison, along with schizophrenic killer Lynch (Diesel), in the hunt to find a stolen fortune.

The pair travel across Los Angeles, Japan and Cuba to find the loot, with Lynch acting as the team's watchdog in order to protect his wife and daughter.

The script for the film has been penned by Skip Woods and Kyle Ward.

Butler has completed work on How To Train Your Dragon 2 - which will see him lend his voice to the character of Stoick the Vast once again.

Gods of Egypt looks set to be the next movie on the horizon. Last week it was announced he would be reprising the role of Mike Banning in London Has Fallen.

As for Diesel he is currently film Fast & Furious 7. He will be back on the big screen next summer in Guardians of the Galaxy.
