    Cohen Brothers “Scarface” Reboot Nabs Director

    Mary Anne ButlerBy Updated:1 Min Read

    Sure, the iconic 1983 “Scarface” is a reboot of a reboot already, so why not one more? As much as we do not want yet another reboot/remake/reimagining, seeing Joel and Ethan Cohen as the project’s writers has certainly peaked our interest.

    Just today, Universal Studios announced that Luca Guadagnino (“Suspiria,” “Call Me By Your Name”) will be directing the film.



    The Cohen Brothers wrote the most recent draft of the script, originally penned by Gareth Dunnet-Alcocer, Jonathan Herman, and Paul Attanasio.

    No word on a possible release date yet, or who might be stepping into the iconic lead role.

    Mary Anne Butler (Mab) has been part of the fast-paced world of journalism since she was 15, getting her start in album reviews and live concert coverage for a nationally published (print) music magazine. She eventually transitioned to online media, writing for such sites as UGO/IGN, ComicsOnline, Geek Magazine, Ace of Geeks, Aggressive Comix (where she is still Editor-in-Chief), Bleeding Cool (where she was News Editor), and now Nerdbot as Editor-In-Chief. Over the past 10 years, she’s built a reputation at conventions across the globe as a cosplayer (occasionally), photographer (constantly), panelist and moderator (mostly), and reporter (always). Interviews, reviews, observations, breaking news, and objective reporting are the name of the game for the founder of Harkonnen Knife Fight, a Dune-themed band with an international presence. Though she be but little, she is fierce.
