Josh Bowman, Ron Perlman and Esai Morales have been cast in the thriller "Live 2 Die", directed by Victor Rios from a script by Jason Zimmatore. The casting brings together a mix of established and rising screen talent for a crime drama tackling organised crime and institutional corruption, adding to each actor's growing list of projects.

The film follows Detective Jack Graves, Dr Eduardo "Lalo" Gonzalez and journalist Penny Jaramillo as they expose an organ-trafficking network linked to cartels, corrupt officials and law enforcement, before becoming targets themselves. It is produced by Jason Strickland, Jasmin Espada, Rios and Peter M. Lenkov, with Nickie Davis, Morales and Tony Sarandos serving as executive producers. Bowman, known for "Revenge", also has "Little Audrey" and "Starstruck" upcoming; Perlman recently appeared in Apple TV's "Cape Fear"; and Morales was last seen in the two most recent "Mission: Impossible" films.
