Production Weekly is reporting that Joaquin Phoenix is set to reunite with his The Yards director James Gray on We Own the Night, an epic crime drama penned by Gray.

The site reports the storyline is set against the turbulent world of Russian organized crime and an embattled New York City Police Department in the 1980s. A Russian narcotics gang has a hit list of NYPD officers and it is up to Joseph, a night club manager to save his brother Bobby and father who are next on this list.

Robert Duvall and Eva Mendes are also attached to the film, which is scheduled to begin production in New York next month.
