Jimbo 175 Posted November 7, 2008 Share Posted November 7, 2008 Steven Spielberg and Will Smith are in talks to direct and star in a remake of Chan-wook Park's belting 2004 revenge thriller, Oldboy. DreamWorks is currently in negotiations to secure the remake rights, and the movie would be distributed by Universal. Spielberg has started looking for a writer. So it looks like it's real, it's happening. And we're utterly stunned. Not least because, as well as being compelling, bold, and utterly brilliant, Oldboy is the sort of uncompromising, dark thriller that would represent a huge risk for the previously attached team of Justin Lin and Nic Cage, let alone the most bankable director-star team in the world. Which, if you're wondering, is exactly what Smith and Spielberg represent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sweetleftpeg 0 Posted November 7, 2008 Share Posted November 7, 2008 What's the fucking point, they'll change it to the point it doesn't resemble the original in any way shape or form with a US audience friendly ending. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brock Manson 0 Posted November 7, 2008 Share Posted November 7, 2008 They changed the ending of I Am Legend to be more 'cinema friendly'...God knows what they'll do with Oldboy. Probably the chap who throws Will in a cell for so long will adopt his daughter and then the end will be Will throwing her a birthday party.
