The Blind Bastards Club, you should definitely remember this title!
When I first heard about an upcoming Ash Baron-Cohen‘s (yes, he is the cousin of Sacha Baron Cohen) project, I was like – what’s with that bastard thing these days?

Lenny Kravitz, Mickey Rourke, Rosario Dawson, Rodrigo Santoro and Riccardo Scamarcio are all attached to star in “The Blind Bastard Club” reports Screen Daily.
The story follows a group of blind thrillseekers who begin bar brawls, jump out of planes and pretend they’re not blind - all in order to live life on the edge. The leader of the pack soon falls for a rollerblading call girl.
Ash Baron-Cohen (”This Girl’s Life”) will direct the $6 million feature and shooting kicks off in Brazil in April. Frank Desmarais, Andrew Mysko and Cory Neal will produce.
