Mel Gibson and Vince Vaughn reunite for police brutality movie, S. Craig Zahler's Dragged Across Concrete

The film features cops who are suspended after 'strong-arm tactics' revealed by media

Following an Oscar nomination for Best Actor, Mel Gibson seems to once again be in Hollywood’s favour, having previously been outcast for various comments.

With Gibson’s comeback having been solidified, the actor/director’s next project has been announced; another collaboration with Vince Vaughn, the pair having worked together on Hacksaw Ridge.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, Dragged Across Concrete is ‘a gritty crime thriller’ written and directed by Bone Tomahawk’s S. Craig Zahler.

The film centres on two policemen - Gibson and Vaughn - ‘who find themselves suspended when a video of their strong-arm tactics become the media's cause du jour’. The pair descends into the criminal underworld to gain their due, but discover more in the shadows than intended.

Gibson and Vaughn’s collaboration Hacksaw Ridge has been nominated for six Oscars, including Best Picture, Director, and Leading Actor for Andrew Garfield’s turn as Desmond Doss.

While an impressive haul, the Oscar nominations have been dominated by La La Land, the film matching Titanic’s previous record of 14 nominations.
