Michael B. Jordan Reimagines The Thomas Crown Affair
Michael B. Jordan is making a new version of the movie The Thomas Crown Affair.
He's both acting in it and directing it.
He doesn't want it to be just a copy of the old movies, but a fresh take.
He shot the movie in London, and it will come out in 2027.
Jordan loved the 1999 version with Pierce Brosnan when he was a kid.
He wants this new movie to surprise people and be different from what they expect.
It's about a rich man who commits crimes for fun and gets involved with an investigator.
Jordan's mom is an artist, so he has always liked art, which is part of the movie.
Michael B. Jordan is starring in and directing a remake of The Thomas Crown Affair, set to release on March 5, 2027.
Jordan was inspired by the 1999 version starring Pierce Brosnan and wants to reimagine the classic heist film.
The movie was shot in London and features an ensemble cast including Ruth Negga, Aubrey Plaza, Kenneth Branagh, and Lily Gladstone.
Jordan aims to divert expectations and create a fresh take on the story, not just a reboot or remake.
He appreciated the art and slickness of the 1999 version, which showed him a different side of New York.
