Two For the Money is a drama of high stakes set in the adrenalized world of wheeler-dealers whose fortunes are won and lost betting on sports. Matthew McConaughey stars as Brandon Lane, a former college football star whose uncanny ability to predict the outcome of a game introduces him to an unexpected new career when his gridiron glory is sidelined by a crushing injury.
Brandon’s
talent makes him a prime candidate for recruitment by Walter Abraham
(Oscar®-winner Al Pacino), the head of one of the biggest sports
consulting operations in the country. Walter hires the small town
ex-athlete and grooms him into a shrewd front man. Brandon soon begins
to enjoy his status as a Manhattan golden boy and finds himself growing
comfortable with Walter’s high-rolling lifestyle. The surrogate
father/surrogate son relationship fattens Walter’s business
and personal accounts…until Brandon’s golden touch begins
to falter at the same time that Walter’s manipulation of his
protégé crosses the line. ![]()
With millions of dollars on the line, Brandon and Walter engage in a deadly game of con versus con, each one trying to maintain the upper hand while everyone in their world, including Walter’s wife, Toni (Rene Russo), are drawn into the escalating duel—where ultimately everything isn’t what it appears to be.
A taut “who’s conning whom?” drama, Two For the Money is a Morgan Creek production, directed by D.J. Caruso (Taking Lives), written by Dan Gilroy and produced by James G. Robinson and Jay Cohen. The film is executive-produced by Guy McElwaine and David Robinson.
