According to Hollywood Reporter, Al Pacino, Susan Sarandon and John Goodman are set to star in the HBO biopic "You Don't Know Jack," a film about about Dr. Jack Kevorkian.

Barry Levinson will direct the piece, as well as executive producing it with Steven L. Jones, Lydia Dean Pilcher and Glenn Rigberg.

The film is loosely based on Neal Nicol and Harry Wylie's book 'Between the Dying and the Dead: Dr. Jack Kevorkian's Life and the Battle to Legalize Euthanasia." It will document Kevorkian's (Pacino) life as he sets out to perform assisted suicides and wages epic legal battles.

Sarandon is set to play the character of Janet Good who is an activist friend of Kevorkian's.
