Oscar nominee Lily Gladstone (Killers of the Flower Moon) is another new addition to Amazon MGM Studios‘ reimagining of The Thomas Crown Affair, to be directed by and star Michael B. Jordan.
No word yet on the role to be played by Gladstone. Oscar winner Kenneth Branagh is another new addition to the cast, as we told you earlier this morning, when Oscar-winning producer Charles Roven announced his involvement with the project, as well. Jordan and Taylor Russell lead the cast of the film, which shoots this summer and is slated for an exclusive theatrical release on March 5, 2027.
While plot details are being kept under wraps, both the original 1968 film from United Artists and the 1999 remake from MGM were heist stories revolving around a wealthy, thrill-seeking man who orchestrates a high-stakes robbery simply for the challenge, only to find himself entangled in a complex cat-and-mouse game with a brilliant investigator.
As previously reported, Drew Pearce wrote the script for The Thomas Crown Affair, with Wes Tooke and Justin Britt-Gibson penning an earlier draft, based on the original film. Patrick McCormick and Toberoff Productions’ Marc Toberoff will also serve as producers, with Alan Trustman — who penned the 1968 original — serving as executive producer.
Since becoming the first Native American to be nominated for the Best Actress Oscar for her starring role in Martin Scorsese’s Killers of the Flower Moon, Gladstone has been seen starring in Erica Tremblay’s Apple pic Fancy Dance, Morrisa Maltz’s indie drama Jazzy, and Hulu’s Under the Bridge. Currently, she can be seen starring in Andrew Ahn’s update on The Wedding Banquet for Bleecker Street. Other upcoming projects include Mark Pellington’s action thriller Lone Wolf, opposite Bryan Cranston, and the starry indie comedy In Memoriam from writer-director Rob Burnett. She is represented by Authentic, IAG, and McKuin Frankel Whitehead LLP.
