How to Rob a Bank, a true crime documentary directed by Stephen Robert Morse and Seth Porges, arrived on Netflix on June 5, 2024. Written by Maxim Gertler-Jaffe, Max Peltz, and Stephen Robert Morse, the documentary is based on the true story of how bank robbers stole cash in Seattle in the 1990s.

How to Rob a Bank features interviews with real robbers who explain how they got the bank employees to hand over the cash. The storyline revolves around Scott Scurlock, the world’s best bank robber in the 1990s in Seattle. When he realizes that he is risking too much and is on the brink of getting caught by the police, he decides to go on a last heist along with his crew.

The official synopsis of the true-crime documentary How to Rob a Bank reads:

"It's the 1990s in Seattle and the world's best bank robber has it all. But as law enforcement inches closer, his once-carefree life spirals into a suffocating trap, forcing him and his crew to risk it all in one final heist."

Director Seth Porges talked about the film and said:

“This is a movie about how you shouldn't be a bank robber. This is a story about what it means to live a double life, what it means to live a life of lies, and how unsustainable that is.”

Who stars in Netflix's How to Rob a Bank?

1) Jordan Burtchett as Scott Scurlock

30-year-old American/Canadian actor Jordan Burtchett has starred in multiple movies and TV shows like 2 Hearts (2020), Drinkwater (2021), Helstorm (2020), To All The Boys I’ve Loved Before (2018), and more. In the Netflix documentary How to Rob a Bank, he stars as Scott Scurlock, a drug dealer who turned into the most notorious bank robber.

How to Rob a Bank is based on Scott Scurlock, the most innovative bank robber in US history. In the early 1990s, Scurlock stole $2.3 million from 17 Seattle banks. His thefts were inspired by films such as Point Break (1991).

He evaded the police for years and earned the nickname “Hollywood” because of his false appearances. On Thanksgiving Eve in 1996, Scurlock was trapped while escaping after his grand heist. He, along with Steve Meyers and Mark Biggins (his crew), escaped the bank after the robbery, but the traffic slowed them down, and they were caught up in a car chase.

Scurlock managed to escape the police and hide in a decommissioned camper. Cops surrounded him, and he saw no room for escape, which made him shoot himself.
