Guys and Dolls is getting a remake

Mike and I spoke about Guys and Dolls on a recent episode of After The Ending. While it was never one of my favourite musicals I always find it fascinating watching Marlon Brando in the film version.

20th Century Fox is now working on a new adaptation of the stage play and Michael Grandage (Genius) will direct. Grandage directed the stage play in London back in 2005 so he should be a good pick. Danny Strong wrote the script.

Casting is just getting underway on the remake of the stage and movie classic. A few years back the studio wanted Channing Tatum and Joseph Gordon-Levitt for the film when they picked up the rights, but it is not clear whether they are still in the running. I could see them both being perfect for the film.

If not those two, who else could you see in the lead roles?
