By Brian Smith
April 6, 2006

Slevin is suffering from a bad case of mistaken identity.

After arriving in New York to visit Nick, an old friend, Slevin gets mugged and his wallet is stolen. Slevin finds Nick’s apartment, but Nick is nowhere to be found.

Soon after, two thug under the impression that Slevin is Nicktake Slevin to meet, “The Boss.” It turns out that Nick owes “The Boss” a lot of money, and will only erase the debt if he assassinates the son of his rivaling crime boss, Schlomo “The Rabbi.”

So, after “The Boss” is done with him, Slevin is summoned to meet “The Rabbi,” who is also under the impression that Slevin is Nick. Nick also owes “The Rabbi” a lot of money, and his only option is to pay it in 48 hours. Of course, no one will believe Slevin when he tells them “You’ve got the wrong guy.”

Meanwhile, a suspicious cop and a hitman are harassing Slevin, while he and Nick’s neighbor try to find out what happened to Nick. During all this, Slevin has to come up with a plan to get out of this awkward situation.

There is a wide variety of casting, including, Josh Hartnett, Bruce Willis, Lucy Liu, Morgan Freeman and Stanley Tucci which should add a great mixture of excitement to the film.
