He remained active from 1998 to 2000, after which he was caught and put in jail. He escaped from there, too, and was active again for a year (2004-2005) before being caught and arrested for the final time. Cianfrance wrote the script with Kirt Gunn. The cast includes Juno Temple, Ben Mendelsohn, Molly Price, and LaKeith Stanfield. The project is in its filming phase and will be released on October 3, 2025.
