Justin Theroux is all set to direct Universal and Imagine's upcoming comedy "Chief Ron," with Brian Grazer on-board to produce, according to Variety.
Inspired by the true story of Chief Ron Roberts, the flick centers on a conman who claims he's Mohegan so he can open a casino.
Jordan Roberts ("Around the Bend") wrote the script. David Gordon Green ("Pineapple Express") will serve as co-executive producer on the project.
Theroux made his directorial debut with 2007's "Dedication." As a screenwriter, he worked on "Tropic Thunder" and "Iron Man 2." Acting gigs include "Mulholland Drive" and "Miami Vice."
