Scarface is going to be redone.

[Ravenholm]

The trend seems to be set to continue with yet another remake. In this case a remake of a remake.

Yes indeed. Universal are at it once again.

Scarface (2011/12) coming to a cinema near you!.

I have no idea if this is old news to some of you but it most certainly is new to me. I just thought I'd post it here incase some haven't heard the appauling news yet. There just doesn't seem to be any justice in the movie industry these days. None what so ever.

A remake of a remake.I don't think it'll have any chance of topping
the last one

 

[Will E Worm]

I doubt it will top what has already been done. More remakes instead of new material.

 

[Pattheprovo]

Fuck this shit get onto next star trek....At least it's a decent reboot

 

[GodsEmbryo]

The title of the thread almost sounded like an add for plastic surgery...

I'm getting realy tired of remakes, sequels, another book or comic that's made into a movie, tributes, "based on events"-movies and so on. Yes, they can be cool but what about originality and something fresh? :dunno:

 

[Shifty]

Deadline also notes that while the new "Scarface" won't be a true, full-on remake, "it will take the common elements of the first two films: An outsider, an immigrant, barges his way into the criminal establishment in pursuit of a twisted version of the American dream, becoming a kingpin through a campaign of ruthlessness and violent ambition."

I wonder who will play the main character, and what the setting will be?

 

[Red Spyder]

I can just imagine this guy saying "sey 'ello to mee little friend" in the voice of the character that made him famous

The Pacino version is a remake. The original is from the 30's I think.

I read somewhere once that out of the 100% of scripts that Hollywood buys from people, only 5% of them are actually used. I guess the rest of their time goes out to remakes and sequels and prequels. It's sad and pathetic!.

... "sey 'ello to mee little friend"...

Sadly, I can't begin to tell you how many men have said that to me in the bedroom. Ahhhh :hairpull:

A lot of scripts are purchased so other studios can't make the film.
