Originally directed by Lee Jeong-beom, starring Won Bin as that titular nowhere man, Dimension Films originally picked up the rights in 2012 for Shawn Christensen (Abduction) lớn write, before New Line announced their take in 2016. Now, a team of contemporary kích hoạt maestros is attached to the project.

The original premise of the picture reminds me a cảm ứng of John Wick, with a little Léon: The Professional thrown in for good measure — Won plays a mysterious, deadly man who embarks on a single-minded, violent chase of rescue và revenge when his only friend, a little girl played by Kim Sae-ron, is kidnapped. While no premise details of the remake have been specified, I can"t imagine they"d move too far from the source material, given its bare simplicity & similarity lớn the Wick-verse already.

Stahelski and Kolstad are working on the movie through their 87Eleven Entertainment production/stunt-team banner, which means you know the kích hoạt is gonna kick ass (even though they haven"t announced a director yet either). Beyond Stahelski, producers include 87Eleven"s Jason Spitz and New Line"s Richard Brener, Josh Mack & Chris Pan. Normally I"m not a tín đồ of English-language remakes, especially of my beloved South Korean genre cinema scene (cc: Spike Lee"s Oldboy), but in this case, the filmmakers & material seem an almost too-perfect match.
