Antoine Fuqua giver en update på ‘Scarface’ remake

Antoine Fuqua’s remake af ‘The Magnificent Seven’ rammer de danske biografer i morgen (hold øje med vores anmeldelse) og her er instruktørens kommentar om hvilken vinkel hans ‘Scarface’ remake kommer til at have. Det lyder som om den kommende ‘Scarface’ remake kommer til at være stærkt inspireret af Al Pacino’s version.

Fuqua fortæller: I read the script they have and it’s actually really interesting and very timely. We’re dealing with a lot of stuff now coming out of Mexico. And again, we still have those issues dealing with the “American Dream”, and the fact that the game is rigged, right? It’s not really an even playing field, but the promise is that it is. The promise is that everyone gets a fair shot, but that’s not always the case. So that’s always relevant, and right now with what’s happening in Mexico, which is where [the main character] comes from — he comes out of Mexico — that’s relevant, especially when you’ve got people talking about putting up walls and other kinds of stuff. We’re still dealing with immigration, we’re still dealing with what would turn someone into Scarface. 

Antoine Fuqua er efterhånden kendt som en stabil og god instruktør, så det bliver spændende at se om han kan fortolke de ovennævnte temaer i en god og underholdende gangster-film. Vi ser frem til at sige Hello til vores lille nye remake i den nærmeste fremtid.
