Pierce Brosnan on Thomas Crown 2

[Mr. Socko]

I'm quite glad Mr. Brosnan is returning. Wouldn't be seeing it if they used another actor.

 

[Sebastos]

Loved the first one, can't wait for the second.

 

[jimmylace]

seems like a very unusual choice of director it has to be said....

 

[Sebastos]

I think it'll be alright.

 

[Lord Blackbolt]

Brosnan is so passed his prime... he's doing TV movies these days... and Seraphrim Falls was a flop. I hope this gets him back on the map though... he hag a good thing going with this... he should have done sequels sooner... instead he did Die Another Day... o well...

What TV movie?


Anyway...Is Angelina Jolie still attached to this movie? Also...I don't like the name of the movie.

Angelina Jolie is becoming way too overused. I personally am not impressed with her skills as an actress nor her physical being. There are many better actresses with better looks.

 

[YsoSerious]

There was a Thomas Crown 1 ?

 

[Sebastos]

Yes, with Brosnon and Rene Russo.

 

[Steelsheen]

Brosnan, Jolie, Verhoeven-- sounds like a good team

now the crucial part of this is the writing. the main reason why TCA worked so well is because the script was unsinkable, hell it made Kate Moss look like a good actress. they keep with the quality of the script and you'll have a successful franchise the likes of the Bourne movies.

Following up on the earlier announcement that Paul Verhoeven is set to direct Pierce Brosnan sequel The Thomas Crown Affair 2, Variety adds that the sequel will begin shooting in January.

Rene Russo will not return as Crown's love interest. Instead, the follow-up to the 1999 film will feature an uncast character named Nadia Badri as the new female lead.

The follow-up is set in Europe and the Middle East and centers on Crown, who becomes entangled in a centuries-old feud and must decide how much he's truly willing to risk for love.

Brosnan is producing alongside Beau St. Clair and Dino Conte.

Pierce Brosnan talked briefly to the USA Today about The Thomas Crown Affair 2, which will be directed by Paul Verhoeven (Starship Troopers, Basic Instinct).

The new caper is partly based on 1964's Topkapi. "We are just using a sliver of that," he says, including the same setting, Istanbul. This time, his billionaire thief is after a rare diamond instead of paintings.

While Rene Russo will not return, a female co-star has yet to be named. Angelina Jolie is considered in the running. "This is a different affair," Brosnan says.
