Ray Liotta Dealt Into ‘Cogan’s Trade’
Ray Liotta is the most recent actor to join the cast of the crime thriller Cogan’s Trade.
Brad Pitt, James Gandolfini, Javier Bardem, Sam Rockwell, Casey Affleck, Mark Ruffalo, Vincent Curatola and Richard Jenkins also star in writer-director Andrew Dominik’s adaptation of the 1974 George V. Higgins novel.
Pitt’s Jackie Cogan is a professional enforcer who must investigate a heist that took place during a high-stakes poker game under protection of the mob. Liotta will play Mark “Markie” Trattman, the unfortunate hustler who runs the game in a motel room and finds things only going downhill from there.
