Pacino replaces De Niro in Son Of No One

London, (ANI): Al Pacino is said to have replaced Robert De Niro in the upcoming film 'Son Of No One" after the latter pulled out of the project. Pacino will fill the shoes of his The Godfather Part II co-star who apparently dropped out for unknown reasons, according to the Hollywood Reporter.

Channing Tatum, Terrence Howard, Ray Liotta and Katie Holmes were purportedly being considered for the cast, the Daily Star reported. The shooting for the film, based on a young officer with a family secret assigned to work in his old neighbourhood, is expected to start next month in New York.
