The first film projects to be produced through the partnership includes a re-imagining of The Thomas Crown Affair, which long has had Michael B. Jordan attached to star and produce through his Outlier Society banner. That one could end up directed by the brothers, who love the Steve McQueen-Faye Dunaway original.

Has it really been almost as long since the Pierce Brosnan version as the Brosnan version was from the McQueen version? Where did the time go?

I was looking forward to this, because I like the both previous versions and I wanted to see what MBJ would do with it; but I assume it will have to be delayed a bit.

Taylor Russell’s Abrupt Exit from ‘Thomas Crown Affair’ Tied to Rumored Off-Screen Romance — World of Reel

When Taylor Russell abruptly exited Michael B. Jordan’s “The Thomas Crown Affair” mid-shoot due to the usual “creative differences” line, plenty of eyebrows were raised.

That phrase, “creative differences,” gets trotted out so often in Hollywood it’s basically industry code for something went wrong behind the scenes. But what actually happened? The trades must know something, but they seem to be staying out of it. Thankfully, Jeff Sneider isn’t.

According to Sneider, word is that Russell and Jordan reportedly grew “close” in the lead-up to production. Things eventually cooled off before the European leg of the shoot began, but the fallout was allegedly significant enough to impact the working environment on set.
