Deadline Reports:
Josh Brolin was rumored to be on the short list to star in Spike Lee’s Oldboy, a remake of the cult 2003 Korean revenge thriller from Park Chan-wook. Now it’s official: Brolin will topline the Mandate Pictures redo, which begins production in March. Brolin, who just wrapped Men in Black 3 with Will Smith, next begins work on Warner Bros’ Gangster Squad. It looks like he’ll squeeze in Oldboy before shooting Jason Reitman’s Labor Day opposite Kate Winslet; that movie is set to begin production in June.
Pop quiz time! How many Batmen can you fit into the DC Universe? The answer is plenty.
Spike Lee returns with an infectiously enjoyable concert film in David Byrne’s American Utopia: which combines his pointed sensibility with the music of one of New York’s greatest icons.
Da 5 Bloods director Spike Lee admits that he had no idea Chadwick Boseman was battling cancer when they shot the movie.
Megaton's going to flip his shit when he hears this.
I don't want to live on this planet anymore.
It is shocking that they are remaking the oldboy film cuz the orignal is easy one of the 10 tem movies of all time. Hollywood is jus gonna butcher it and make it cheesey as fuck. the only reason to remake a film is to make it better but this remake is never ever ever ever going to b even 1/8 as good so why bother?
everyone by now knows the twist at the end of the original, its going to be a bit anti-climactic to say the least, unless of course they write a totally new script for this one.
I guess I'd better see the original...I've never seen it and don't have a clue what you'll are talking about and now I'm curious.
