'PAPILLON' REMAKE?
Remember how some time ago I told you that Charlie Hunnam will take over Steve McQueen's role in the remake of PAPILLON?![]()
Now, 'Deadline' reports that Rami Malek will take over Dustin Hoffman's role!
Now, 'Deadline' reports that Rami Malek will take over Dustin Hoffman's role! The original film was based on the memoirs of convicted felon and fugitive Henri Charriere. He was a petty criminal from the Parisian underworld who was unjustly convicted of murder in 1930s France. He staged an epic escape from Devil’s Island, a notorious penal colony in French Guiana in South America, aided by quirky counterfeiter Louis Dega who is supposed to be played by Malek. Their relationship starts with Charriere providing protection for Dega from fellow thug inmates and grows into a bond, then Degas agrees to finance Papillon’s prison escape. The remake will be set in modern times.
