Eastwoon is working on a big screen adaptation of the hit stage show about Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons. Walken will play a New Jersey mobster who helped the group build a music career, reported Deadline.
Walken will play Angelo 'Gyp' DeCarlo in the film. Eastwood will reportedly pick up young faces to play Valli and his bandmates.
