About the film

Midnight Run is a 1988 American action-comedy thriller film directed by Martin Brest from a screenplay by George Gallo. It stars Robert De Niro, Charles Grodin, Yaphet Kotto, John Ashton, Dennis Farina, and Joe Pantoliano. In the film, bounty hunter Jack Walsh (De Niro) attempts to take accountant Jonathan Mardukas (Grodin), who is wanted by mob bosses and the FBI, from New York City to Los Angeles. Midnight Run was initially developed by Gallo, who worked with Brest to revise the screenplay. De Niro was the first to be cast, seeking to star in a comedy and play against type from his crime and gangster film roles during the 1970s and 1980s. Paramount Pictures, which distributed Brest's previous film, Beverly Hills Cop (1984), was set to act as Midnight Run's distributor but backed out after casting disagreements with Brest. Universal Pictures picked up the project.
