Acclaimed actor Peter Dinklage, best known for his iconic role as Tyrion Lannister in the hit series 'Game of Thrones', is joining the stellar cast of the film 'Roofman'. According to a report by Deadline, Dinklage will star alongside Hollywood heavyweights Channing Tatum and Kirsten Dunst in this new venture. The film is both written and directed by Derek Cianfrance.

'Roofman' is inspired by the true story of Jeffrey Manchester, a fugitive who found an ingenious hideout in a toy store, supposedly escaping capture. The production is supported by a formidable team, including Cianfrance's long-time collaborators Jamie Patricof of Hunting Lane and Lynette Howell Taylor of 51 Entertainment. They will be joined by Alex Orlovsky and Duncan Montgomery from High-Frequency Entertainment, as well as Dylan Sellers from Limelight.

Executive producers for the project feature an impressive roster: Channing Tatum, Derek Cianfrance, Jonathan Montepare, alongside Limelight's Chris Parker. Additionally, Miramax representatives Jonathan Glickman, Becky Sloviter, and Thom Zadra, together with Jack Selby, Sam Romano, and Rick Covert from High Frequency, are onboard. This announcement follows Dinklage's recent performance in the Amazon MGM Studios comedy 'Brothers', where he starred with Josh Brolin and Brendan Fraser, as reported by Deadline. (ANI)
