1905 Movie Network News Recently, the remake "Scarface Star", which has not been new for two years, exposed a news of actor changes. It is reported that Diego Runa, who had a good performance in "Star Wars Story: Rogue One", has completely withdrawn from the crew, and he will no longer play any role in the film.
This is rather unfortunate news for the majority of fans, after all, the film has been in preparation for at least two years, and the actors have also withdrawn from the crew, which means that the preparation of the film has encountered great difficulties. According to previous reports, the film was directed by David Aye and written by Aye and the Coen brothers. The script focuses on a tyrannical drug dealer who ignores women. With the withdrawal of Diego Runa, Aye will also find another protagonist in the film.
Stills from the 1983 edition of Scarface
Scarface is one of Hollywood's most famous films, and this remake was the second time it was made after the release of The Scarface man directed by Howard Hawkes in 1932. There was previously the 1983 edition of Scarface, directed by Brian de Palma, starring Al Pacino, featuring Cuban refugees. The 1932 version of "Scarface" is a Hollywood gangster movie classic, the protagonist Antonio is an Italian immigrant living in Chicago, the United States, in the United States on the streets, and then with a fierce heart to become a dominant gangster big brother. Although the protagonist's name is Antonio, the film is actually based on the true story of Al Carbon, a famous gangster godfather in American history, who finally died of illness at the age of 48. Carbon was still alive when Scarface was released, so the film was also in the spotlight and controversy at the time.
The 1983 version of Scarface, directed by Brian de Palma and starring Al Pacino, is one of the best-known versions, moving the story to contemporary Miami, where the hero flees from Cuba to Miami and becomes a rich man through the drug business, but in the end he does not end well. Al Pacino's performance in the film has always been praised, and the violence and arrogance he shows are completely different from his performance in "The Godfather".
