Alex Pettyfer is set to topline “Diamond Dogs,” an English-language thriller by “Heartbreaker” director Pascal Chaumeil.
It’s the first English-lingo pic produced by Quad Films, the outfit run by Nicolas Duval Adassovsky, Yann Zenou and Laurent Zeitoun behind B.O. phenomenon “The Intouchables.” Steven Chasman, whose credits include “Killer Elite” and “The Bank Job,” is a co-producer on the film, an adaptation of a novel by Alan Watt.

The Nevada-set pic will star Pettyfer has a popular high school quarterback whose life is turned upside down after he accidently kills someone, a crime that his father, who is the local sherrif, is covering up.

Quad is in process of casting a high-profile thesp to play the teen’s father.

Pettyfer recently completed Steven Soderbergh’s comedy “Magic Mike.”

Chaumeil, who’s a fan of film noir, told Variety that he was attracted to the novel because it’s a well-paced crime thriller with lots of suspense with a deep emotional component. The Gallic filmmaker will soon make his English-language debut with the HanWay-repped dramedy “A Long Way North,” which stars Pierce Brosnan, Toni Collette and Emile Hirsch.

Chaumeil is wrapping “Fly Me to the Moon,” a Quad-produced action-packed adventure comedy starring Dany Boon and Diane Kruger, which Gregoire Melin’s Kinology is selling at Cannes.

The Steven Soderberg male-stripper pic Magic Mike will have its world premiere as the closing-night film at the Los Angeles Film Festival, which today released its official selections for the June 14-24 event. Warner Bros’ comedic drama stars Channing Tatum, Alex Pettyfer and Matthew McConaughery and details Tatum’s real-life experience as a stripper. It opens domestically June 29. Also among the titles announced is the world premiere of DreamWorks’ People Like Us, written by Alex Kurtzman and Roberto Orci and directed by Kurtzman. Chris Pine, Elizabeth Banks, Olivia Wilde, Mark Duplass and Michelle Pfeiffer star in the film set in the Summer Showcase sidebar. The festival’s slate of almost 200 feature films, short films, and music videos represent more than 30 countries. It already had announced that Woody Allen’s To Rome With Love would kick off the 2012 event as the opening-night film.

Head over to Deadline for the full lineup for the LA Film Festival.

Much to the delight of women and gay men everywhere, the first trailer for Channing Tatum’s semi-autobiographical stripper movie “Magic Mike” has hit the web, giving eager squeers their first eyeful of Tatum’s sick stripper moves. (I’d definitely keep a few extra twenties in my purse if I knew Tatum was coming over…) But one thing we didn’t see a whole lot of was co-star Alex Pettyfer.

To be fair, Tatum does play the film’s titular character, but when news of Pettyfer’s casting made the rounds last year, it sounded as though his protege character, The Kid — loosely based on Tatum — would be the focus of the film.

Whether the flick truly is a Pettyfer vehicle remains to be seen, but from a marketing standpoint it’s sound business for Warner Bros. to position Tatum as the star. The 31-year-old is coming off a big 2011 in which he starred in no fewer than five movies. He’s already flexed considerable box office muscle in the early months of 2012 with the romantic drama “The Vow” and the high-school comedy “21 Jump Street.” Tatum is a proven performer… unlike his young co-star.

Pettyfer’s had a tough time establishing himself as a bankable leading man, with the under-performing “I Am Number Four” his highest-profile pic to date. Then there are always those pesky prima donna rumors that seem to follow him, tarnishing a bit of his golden gleam. Will “Magic Mike” be the project that sets Alex Pettyfer on the path to true leading-man stardom? We’ll have to see how things shake (and shimmy) out come June 29.
