Michael B. Jordan to Lead ‘Thomas Crown Affair’ Reboot After ‘Sinners’ Success

Michael B. Jordan is riding high!

Fresh off the box office success of ‘Sinners’ — his original vampire flick that’s scored a rare A CinemaScore and racked up $77.5 million domestically — the star is already lining up his next power move.

Details below…

The actor is set to produce and headline a fresh take on ‘The Thomas Crown Affair’ through his Outlier Society production company, with Taylor Russell joining him.

While plot details are still under wraps, fans can expect a stylish, high-stakes thriller worthy of the classic originals starring Steve McQueen and Pierce Brosnan.

The script comes from Drew Pearce, with heavy hitters like Patrick McCormick, Marc Toberoff, and Elizabeth Raposo also producing.

With the ‘Mission: Impossible’ film series winding down, cultural commentators are earmarking ‘Thomas Crown’ as being positioned as the next luxe action franchise.

Suffice it to say, Jordan is booked and busy.
