According to Deadline, Gabriel LaBelle and Isabela Merced are joining Chloë Grace Moretz in the cast of the forthcoming film, “Dutch & Razzlekhan.” The film, which is directed by Jon S. Baird, is based on the 2022 Business Insider article “The $4.5 Billion Question” by Rob Price and Becky Peterson. “Dutch & Razzlekhan” tells the unbelievable true story of a massive crypto heist by Heather “Razzlekhan” Morgan (Moretz) and Ilya “Dutch” Lichtenstein (LaBelle). Merced stars as an expert hacker blackmailed by the FBI into tracking the criminal pair down.
LaBelle broke out in a big way thanks to his performance in Steven Spielberg’s “The Fabelmans.” He’s also appeared in “Snack Shack,” “The Predator,” and most recently, “Saturday Night.”

Merced has appeared in a number of high profile projects over the course of her acting career. Her two biggest projects have yet to be released, as she is set to play Hawkgirl in “Superman” and she has a large role in “The Last of Us” Season 2.
Moretz is also no stranger to big projects. She’s probably best known for her role in “Kick-Ass” and its sequel. More recently, she’s appeared in projects such as “The Peripheral,” “Mother/Android,” and “Nimona.”
There’s no release date set for “Dutch & Razzlekhan,” but the film is expected to begin production in January 2025.
