Sony Pictures Classics has acquired worldwide rights to “Diamond,” a noir crime drama from Andy Garcia that debuted at this year’s Cannes Film Festival.

Garcia wrote and directed “Diamond” in addition to starring as Joe Diamond, a mysterious man with a traumatic past whose uncanny powers of observation allow him to solve crimes the LAPD cannot. Along with Garcia, Vicky Krieps, Brendan Fraser, Rosemarie DeWitt, Bill Murray, Dustin Hoffman, Demián Bichir and LaTanya Richardson Jackson round out the starry cast. “Diamond” has been a long-gestating passion project for Garcia, who also composed an original score with his longtime collaborator Arturo Sandoval.
