Ewan McGregor and Carey Mulligan are taking a look at starring The Electric Slide.

The Electric Slide is based on the article “The Yankee Bandit: The Life and Times of Eddie Dodson, World’s Great Bank Robber,” written by Timothy Ford for Gear magazine.

Tristan Patterson is set to make directing debut with Slide. He also wrote the screenplay. The story is based on Dodson (McGregor), who in the 1980′s robbed more than 72 banks in the Los Angeles area before the FBI caught him.
