Get Lucky is a 2013 British action film directed by Sacha Bennett and starring Luke Treadaway, T. J. Ramini, Craig Fairbrass, Emily Atack and Terry Stone. The film is about a man in debt who joins his brother to pull a heist on the casino of a crime lord, but each one in his hired crew seem to have their own motive. It was produced by Gateway Films and Atlas Independent and released by Universal Pictures in the United Kingdom on August 9, 2013.
Brothers Lucky and Raphael have always lived on the wrong side of the law. When a "job" goes very wrong and Lucky finds himself in debt to local heavies, Sebastian and Kramer, he is forced to join his wayward brother on the biggest heist of their careers. While Raphael concocts a plan to rob the casino of the most powerful crime lord in town, Mr Zigic, and enlists the help of Zigic's own unwitting nephew Niko and employee Eli, Lucky is distracted by the girl of his dreams, femme fatale Bridget, who may not be all that she seems. With betrayals and twists of fate, it seems everyone has an ulterior motive. The question is who can the brothers trust on the most important night of their lives?
Production of the film had been announced in March 2012, when Charles Rovan's production company Atlas Entertainment launched its independent film production & financing label entitled Atlas Independent to focus on producing independent films with Get Lucky servinfg as one of the new production label's productions.
