The always-busy Will Smith has just lined up another new project. This one's for Fox, and it's a Morocco-based action flick about a hero who has to deal with a bunch of evil counterfeiters.

Says Variety: "Will Smith is attached to star in "Greenbacks," based on a pitch by Doug Cook and David Weisberg, for 20th Century Fox.



Morocco-set action thriller revolves around an American ex-pat who stumbles across a plot to destabilize the world's economy by mass-producing perfect counterfeit greenbacks.

Cook and Weisberg's credits include "The Rock" and "Double Jeopardy."

actually it is verrrrrrrrrrrrry expensive to try it but once perfected its easy to spread it around. If you read the news North Korea has been named as spreading fake us currency to buy all sorts of things. Also during WW2 the Nazis employed people to make counterfeit british money and succeeded but were caught out very early on
