Teresa Palmer Joins Liam Neeson in Dark Comedy 4 Kids Walk Into a Bank
Teresa Palmer has officially joined the cast of 4 Kids Walk Into a Bank, a dark comedy directed by Frankie Shaw for Amazon MGMβs Orion label. Filming for the project began in December in Ireland, with a star-studded lineup that includes Liam Neeson, Talia Ryder, Whitney Peak, and Jack Dylan Grazer.
The film follows Danny (Neeson), a retired bank robber whose teenage granddaughter, Paige (Ryder), discovers that his former crew is pressuring him to return for one last heist to clear a debt. Determined to protect him, Paige enlists her three closest friends to rob the bank first, leading to an unpredictable and chaotic turn of events. Palmer plays the role of the bank manager, who finds herself romantically entangled with one of the robbers.
Adapted from the graphic novel by Matthew Rosenberg and Tyler Boss, the screenplay was written by Matt Robinson. The film is being produced by Picturestart, Miramax, Point Grey, Black Mask Studios, and Uncle Pete Productions, with FilmNation managing international sales.

Additionally, she appeared in the romantic comedy Addition, which premiered at TIFF, and in David Leitchβs The Fall Guy.
