Ed Harris to reteam with Michael Bay for Pain and Gain?

The Rock star Ed Harris might reunite with director Michael Bay for Pain and Gain, Vulture reports.

Ironically, Dwayne Johnson – aka The Rock – is already set to star in the pic, which has been nicknamed “Michael Bay’s Fargo”.

Said to be a relatively smaller budget exercise for Bay, it is based on a true story in which ‘roided up Miami bodybuilders bungle the kidnapping of a millionaire, and find themselves at the wrong end of a revenge plot.

Bay has been trying to get Pain and Gain made since before Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen began production, and Paramount are said to have greenlit the flick in an effort to entice the director to helm Transformers 4.

Discuss: Can Bay pull off a small scale exercise?
