Paramount Pictures is in negotiations with Chris Pine to star in and D.J. Caruso to direct the fact-based drama "The Art of Making Money."

According to Variety, Paramount is hoping to begin production early next year.

Brian Robbins is producing with Sharla Sumpter and Brad Weston.

Frank Baldwin wrote the script.

Pine will play Art Williams, the alias for a Chicago man who rose from small theft to become an infamous master counterfeiter.

Paramount acquired the project based on a 2005 Rolling Stone article by Jason Kersten, who turned his article into the book "The Art of Making Money: The Story of a Master Counterfeiter," which was published last summer by Gotham.
