I'm reposting the latest

Will it happen or wont it. Word last year was that To wanted to wrap up Vengeance, and it is now premiering at Cannes, so does that mean TRC is going foward?

Things say yes

Quote:

Deal comes as To prepares to direct "The Red Circle," a remake of the Jean-Pierre Melville-directed 1970 film "Le Cercle Rouge."

Quote:

To’s Vengeance, starring Johnny Hallyday, will open in Paris on 20 May. Mr. To and Shan continue to work with their collaborators on a remake of Melville’s The Red Circle, and they’re preparing a New Year’s comedy as well.

I feel like Lord Helmet on Spaceballs. Preparing! You're always preparing!!

But hopefully it is a go, and hopefully Orlando is attached! I think this is a good project, I also think he's a good director! It would open a different market for him too

and also this is what Eliza had to say on the original 1970's version "Le Cercle Rouge"

Quote:

It was made in the 70's and it's in French, but has subtitles. There's not much dialog at all which really makes me want to see OB in the main role - it's just ACTING. Now that I think about it, there was so little dialog that what little is left of my French was able to get me through some scenes without reading the subtitles.

I'm gonna double post to say, I really think he'd be phenomenal at that Eliza! The non-verbal that he does is so good, and in a role like that I think it would be so much more appreciated than it usually is!
