How to Rob a Bank is David Leitch’s 2026 scripted feature with Nicholas Hoult, Zoë Kravitz and Anna Sawai. The 2024 Netflix documentary with the same title concerns Scott Scurlock in Seattle. Year and format resolve the title collision.
The scripted film has its own credits
Sony’s film record names David Leitch as director and Mark Bianculli as writer. Its story follows a crew whose public attention draws an FBI agent and a software engineer into the case. Imagine Entertainment gives the feature its 2026 year.
Use one of those creative credits with the title. A result featuring Hoult or Kravitz in the cast identifies the scripted work more precisely than the title text.
The documentary has a different subject
Netflix describes the 2024 film as a documentary about Scott Scurlock and his crimes in Seattle. Stephen Robert Morse and Seth Porges direct, with interviews helping tell the account. The subject’s name and the documentary format distinguish that production.
| Work | Identifier |
|---|---|
| 2026 scripted feature | David Leitch directs from Mark Bianculli’s screenplay. |
| 2024 documentary | Stephen Robert Morse and Seth Porges cover Scott Scurlock in Seattle. |
Save the full identification
For a scene or cast reference, use How to Rob a Bank, 2026, David Leitch. For the documentary, keep the 2024 year and Scurlock’s name. That gives each same-title film its own searchable reference.
