Gerald Butler (300) will star in Brian De Palma's The Untouchables: Capone Rising, reports Variety.

He joins Nicolas Cage, who will play a younger version of Al Capone, the character made famous by Robert De Niro. "Capone Rising" is a prequel to De Palma's 1987 classic The Untouchables, and will revolve around the early dealings between Capone and Irish cop Jimmy Malone, a role that garnered an Oscar for Sean Connery.

Principal photography will begin in October.
