MUMBAI: Veteran actor Al Pacino and director Brian De Palma are all set to team up once-again for a new film titled Happy Valley that is about a disgraced American football coach Joe Paterno.

The duo, who were last seen in Scarface are coming together for a true story film about Penn State football coach, who was a well respected coach until a child sex abuse scandal surrounding his former assistant coach ended his career, it is reported.

The film is to be produced by Edward R Press who had earlier made Wall Street. Observed Press, "Happy Valley reunites the Scarface and Carlito‘s Way team of De Palma and Pacino for the third time and I can‘t think of a better duo to tell this story of a complex, intensely righteous man who was brought down by his own tragic flaw."

Pacino has earlier enacted the role of a troubled football coach Tony D‘Amato in Any Given Sunday made in 1999
