But I'm excited because Lone Wolf and Cub is one of many projects that I can't wait to go back and revisit in the next two weeks when we're done with all the press." "Five-to-ten years ago, they would have wanted Keanu Reeves to play the dad," Lin said. "I think the cool thing about it is that filmmaking has gone global. There's many ways to make a movie and I think Hollywood has to evolve.”
Wouldn't it be a better idea to do a remake that expires similar themes from a western point of view like they did with Magnificent Seven? I mean they could do it as a Western, or to keep the period more directly parallel they could base it on a Knight in Western Europe. In fact now that I think of it, the whole Hound and Ayra subplot in Game of Thrones shares some DNA with this idea.
Yeah I realise that, but you know if they're keen for another toke on the pipe there's loads of settings they could pick.
"Seven" Writer Tapped For Hollywood "Lone Wolf And Cub" Star Trek Beyond director Justin Lin is on board to produce and possibly direct. A new update has Andrew Kevin Walker (Seven, 8MM, Sleepy Hollow) tapped to write a script.
