"Blue Crush" director John Stockwell has been tapped to helm the New Line Cinema feature "After the Sunset," starring Pierce Brosnan.

[...] when his lifelong nemesis, an FBI agent, shows up to make sure the thief is really retired, a new cat-and-mouse game of friendship, suspicion and thievery begins.
