Luca Guadagnino to Direct ‘Scarface’ Reboot

Universal has attached “Call Me by Your Name” filmmaker Luca Guadagnino to develop its “Scarface” retelling for the studio with an eye to direct.
Joel Coen and Ethan Coen wrote the latest version of the script with earlier drafts by Gareth Dunnet-Alcocer, Jonathan Herman and Paul Attanasio.
“Scarface” will be produced by Dylan Clark for his Dylan Clark Productions. Scott Stuber will executive produce alongside Marco Marabito. SVP Brian Williams will also executive produce for Dylan Clark Productions.
The story has been adapted a number of times, most recently in the 1983 classic starring Al Pacino and Michelle Pfeiffer with Brian DePalma directing. The new pic is a reimagining of the core immigrant story told in both the 1932 and 1983 films, and will be set in Los Angeles.
 
At least the sound like they are going to do the same thing as before and call it the same thing but have it be a retelling. Yeah, the 1983 movie was a remake, but with the exception of the core theme, it was a completely different movie. It should be the same here. If it's set in L.A. and is still about an immigrant then it will probably be on some Mexican gang/cartel type shit.
