New Film w/ Laurence Fishburne & Amaury Nolasco: Armored

I received word that Armored, a new movie coming out on December 4th, tells the story of a “crew of officers at an armored transport security firm who risk their lives when they embark on the ultimate heist….against their own company. Armed with a seemingly fool-proof plan, the men plan on making off with a fortune with harm to none. But when an unexpected witness interferes, the plan quickly unravels and all bets are off.”

The movie stars one of my favorite actors: Laurence Fishburne. As well as Amaury Nolasco, Matt Dillon, Skeet Ulrich and more.

Oh yeah and did I mention the hotness that is Amaury Nolasco!

AMAURY NOLASCO, a native of Puerto Rico, studied biology at the University of Puerto Rico. His plan to enroll in medical school was cut short when a director approached Nolasco, and encouraged him to pursue acting. He was immediately cast in his first television commercial and began working consistently as an actor in Puerto Rico.

Eventually, Nolasco moved to New York and studied at the American British
Dramatic Arts School. Shortly thereafter, he guest starred on several TV shows including, CSI: Crime Scene Investigation, ER, George Lopez, and CSI: New York.

Nolasco landed his first major supporting role in the film 2 Fast 2 Furious as Orange Julius. He went on to costar in several more films including, Mr. 3000 opposite Bernie Mac, and Benchwarmers opposite Rob Shnieder and David Spade.

Most recently Nolasco co-starred in Michael Bay’s Transformers, and David Ayer’s Street Kings opposite Keanu Reeves, Forrest Whitaker, and Hugh Laurie. He also appeared opposite Mark Wahlberg in Max Payne.

Nolasco’s upcoming releases include The Rum Diary with Johnny Depp due out in 2010.
