According to the producer Brian Grazer, tornado and Defender: Maverick Star Glen Powell May star in remake of director’s work Ron Howard1991 classic movie countercurrent.
Glazer revealed the news on CNBC, saying: “These formats became very important in the late ’90s and 2000s because streamers or studios are now more risk-averse.”
Glazer added: “They like brands that are already established, that there’s a lot of recognition for, and you can add a new element to that, or really interesting casting, which is certainly what we’re doing. matter.
“We are doing something Sidney Sweeney I’m very excited about this. we are doing something Scarlett Johansson, also very excited. I mentioned Glen Powell and countercurrent”.
Ugh, I hate it when Hollywood keeps putting out these remakes and sequels. But damn, it’s such a shame that audiences didn’t really get to see the original movie.
I like the original countercurrent movie, starring Kurt Russell, Donald Sutherland, Robert De Niro, William Baldwinand jennifer jason lee.
The film centers on the McCaffrey brothers Stephen (Russell) and Brian (Baldwin), both Chicago firefighters. Following in the footsteps of their late father, a legendary firefighter who died in the line of duty, the brothers navigate a complex relationship filled with competition and respect.
Brother Stephen is a veteran and fearless firefighter, while Brian, struggling to escape his brother’s shadow, is a newcomer trying to prove himself. The story unfolds as the brothers face dangerous fires and uncover a series of suspected arsons plaguing the city.
As the McCaffrey brothers delve deeper into the investigation, they team up with arson investigator Donald “Shadow” Rimgaier (De Niro) to uncover the truth behind the deadly fire. The film pays tribute to the heroism of firefighters.
A direct-to-video sequel was released in 2019, with Sutherland and William Baldwin reprising their roles, but I don’t think anyone wants to admit that this exists.
