Stop What Your Doing right now. Stop Everything! Scarface is being redone!

I can't believe what I'm reading right now on Deadline New York, but I thought it had to be blogged about because this is breaking news.

According to Deadline New York Universal Pictures are developing a new version of the iconic  movie that starred Al Pacino that was released in 1983 and was how could you forget about Tony Montana who muscles his way into the drug world so as to take over from his boss who takes him under his wing and into his business fold, and then he sees his bosses girlfriend and he then wants to take her off his boss as well as his business.

This though says Deadline will not be a sequel or a remake, but it will take two elements from this film, i.e that 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 ruthleswsness and violent ambition.

Now Universal Pictures have just hired Paul Attanasio, along with Marc Schmuger and Martin Bregan who will produce this rewrite under his Global Produce banner to rewrite this from the first draft that was first written by David Ayer.

But for the moment Universal aren't saying where the new Tony will come from.
