If was just revealed that Tiffany will star in The Card Counter opposite Oscar Isaac, Willem Dafoe and Tye Sheridan.

During an interview with Metrograph, Paul Schrader opened up a bit about the film, saying that it’s a “nice cast. Oscar Isaac is the main guy. Tye Sheridan and Tiffany Haddish. And Willem [Dafoe’s] in it too. I love Tiffany. I’ve never met her, but I was on the phone with her for an hour. She’s a firecracker. It’s like talking to a live-wire connection. She’s very funny and, of course, she makes you funny. When someone’s sharp, that makes you get sharp because you want to keep up.”

The Card Counter centers on William Tell, a gambler and former serviceman who sets out to reform a young man seeking revenge on a mutual enemy from their past.
