The long-in-development dark action-thriller reboot might finally see the light of day with Corin Hardy directing Jason Momoa and Andrea Riseborough and Forest Whitaker once attached.
MISS BALA
The deal comes as the Golden Globe-winning star of Jane the Virgin negotiates for the lead role in Sony’s remake of Miss Bala and 20th Century Fox’s comedy Fire Me.
While Rodriguez doesn’t have an offer yet since Hardwicke just boarded the project, there’s no doubt she would absolutely crush this role, as the rising star of Jane the Virgin is a strong match for the material.
Sony Pictures and Misher Films are moving forward with a remake of the 2011 Mexican crime drama Miss Bala from director Gerardo Naranjo. Gareth Dunnet-Alcocer is set to adapt the screenplay, based on the original script by Naranjo and Mauricio Katz.
A young woman dreams of becoming a beauty queen but when she witnesses a gang hit in a nightclub, the mob rigs an upcoming pageant and she’s dragged into the world of drug cartels and corrupt cops.
With 63 total entries announced, which will become the final nominations?
