Caught Stealing (2025) is a crime-action film with a touch of dark comedy, directed by Darren Aronofsky and based on the novel of the same name by Charlie Huston. The movie stars Austin Butler as Hank Thompson, a former high school baseball star living in 1990s New York City.
His quiet life takes a chaotic turn when he agrees to cat-sit for his punk-rock neighbor Russ (played by Matt Smith), only to find himself thrown into a dangerous clash involving Russian, Jewish, and Puerto Rican gangs—without fully understanding why.
The film features a star-studded cast including Zoë Kravitz as Hank’s girlfriend Yvonne, alongside Regina King, Liev Schreiber, Vincent D’Onofrio, Griffin Dunne, Bad Bunny, and Carol Kane. The screenplay is written by Charlie Huston himself, promising a gripping, unpredictable story filled with dark humor.
Caught Stealing is scheduled for theatrical release on August 29, 2025.
