A REMAKE OF SCARFACE?

 

VIA INQUISTOR

The Scarface remake is moving forward, whether fans of the 1983 Al Pacino version like it or not. Of course, it has taken a long time for the remake to get underway. The Inquisitr first ran reports about the new Scarface film back in 2012. At that time, it was reported that the film wouldn’t be “a remake or sequel.”

 

“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.”

The Hollywood Reporter first broke the news that the new Scarface is finally getting into production mode soon, and it will be written by Jonathan Herman (Straight Outta Compton). The setting for the Scarface remake will be Los Angeles instead of Miami or Chicago, which were the respective settings for the 1983 and 1932 films. There are still plans to have this film tell its own story and not be an exact replica of either of the previous films.
