Chandor's "Triple Frontier"

I agree but you'd only need the big names if you're aiming for a blockbuster but if they maybe retool it to a small scale one then they'd be fine with lesser known actors.
 
Yeah this seems like this should be a Sicario level thriller and the budget for that wasnt that high
 
The only "big name" in the lineup they had was Channing Tatum. But supposedly him
and Hardy didn't like the script rewrites.

As a Tom Hardy fan, it's a little frustrating how he seems to
sign up for a million projects and then drop out of all of them.

There might be hope for Triple Frontier, the J.C. Chandor-directed, Charles Roven-produced drama that was four weeks from a production start when Paramount dropped out along with Channing Tatum and Tom Hardy. Since Deadline revealed all this April 12, conversations have been ongoing with several suitors, but they look most promising right now with Netflix. If the streaming service boards, it would offer those lead roles to Ben Affleck and Casey Affleck to join Mahershala Ali in the film.

Nothing’s set
, but that scenario potentially would put the reigning Best Actor Oscar winner (Casey Affleck for Manchester by the Sea) in the same movie with the Best Supporting Actor winner (Ali for Moonlight).

Beyond all this, the project would have to formally extricate from Paramount and start production later in the year.
 
Meh. I'm more interested in Affleck doing Accountant 2 than this. Unless they change the director it'd have to be the God level pairing of Nicolas Cage and Keanu Reeves to get me to care.
 
So apaprently this is shooting in May. The stars are already training.
I can't find another link other than Screen Rant https://screenrant.com/triple-frontier-paramount-tatum-hardy-exit/

And apparently Ben Affleck, Oscar Isaac, Charlie Hunnam,and Garret Hedlund are involved. No word on Mahershala Ali

Still wish Will Smith was attached and I hope it's not too action based. This needs to be Sicario levels of gritty

Ali is the lead of True Detective and is shooting until August. No way he's in this anymore.
 
But will it affect my dreams of Isaac and Pascal getting their own Star Wars spin-off in a positive manner?
 
How does this movie not have Frank Grillo? He would fit in like a glove.
 
Really digging the cast for this and I did enjoy the directors previous work A Most Violent Year. Hopefully, it turns out being as good as it looks.

It wasn't for me. I was hooked the entire time.
 
Well I personally thought this was pretty awesome. Maybe a bit dull in spots, but I loved seeing this cast interact and the action sequences really well done and gritty. If you enjoy the Sicario films this is definitely the movie for you IMO, although its nowhere near as bleak.

8/10
 
This was pretty good. A little slow at points, especially in the second act, but better than a lot of other movies Netflix puts out
 
I liked it. Didn't blow me away or anything, but I never found it slow or dull.
 
Comparing to other Netflix movies this was good but it's a looooow bar.
