Caught Stealing, which also stars Zoë Kravitz, follows former baseball player Hank Thompson, who unexpectedly finds himself entangled in a dangerous struggle for survival amidst the criminal underbelly of 1990s New York City. The film hits theaters on Aug. 29.

Austin Butler tackles an action-heavy lead role in Darren Aronofsky's dark comedy crime caper "Caught Stealing". Set in New York in 1998, the "Elvis" actor plays Hank Thompson, whose promising baseball career was cut short by tragedy.

Butler has been busy doing press for his latest film — Darren Aronofsky’s “Caught Stealing” — in which he plays Hank, a baseball star turned bartender who finds himself immersed in the criminal world of 1990s New York City. Kravitz, 36, plays Yvonne, his love interest in the film.
