Sylvester Stallone will produce a remake of hot Cannes title “The Gangster, The Cop, The Devil”, which will push out from a curtain at a Midnight screening on the croisette.
According to Screen Daily, Balboa Productions were very taken with the film’s strong concept, in which an organised crime boss teams up with a police detective to catch a serial killer – after the boss becomes the sole surviving witness and victim to one of the killer’s attacks.
The Korean film, starring Don Lee, Kim Moo-Yeol and Kim Seong-guy is the second feature from Lee Won-tae following “Man of Will”.
The US version will be produced by the “Creed” star and Balboa Productions’ co-founder Braden Aftergood along with BA Entertainment head Jang Won-seok and Don Lee, who is set to play the gangster boss in the Hollywood remake as well.
No word if Stallone will play a part but if I were a betting lady I’d put a couple of chips down on the “Rambo : Last Blood” star playing the detective.
The original is set for a stateside release May 15.
