Michael B. Jordan Seeks Revenge in 'Thomas Crown Affair'
Michael B. Jordan leads the remake as a global art thief, while the Writers Guild of America credits writers from the 1999 version.
- Later this week, the trailer and poster for The Thomas Crown Affair debut, with the film hitting cinemas March 5, 2027, courtesy of Amazon MGM Studios and starring director Jordan.
- The Writers Guild awarded screenplay credit to Kurt Wimmer and Leslie Dixon, who wrote the 1999 remake, alongside current writer Drew Pearce despite their lack of involvement in the new version.
- Alan Trustman, who wrote the 1968 original, and Joe Carnahan, who wrote an earlier draft, received 'story by' credit for the new film, distinguishing their contribution from the screenplay credits.
- Industry precedent exists: Joseph Stefano received screenplay credit on Gus Van Sant's Psycho remake despite the film mirroring Alfred Hitchcock's original work, establishing a comparable case.
- These credit implications could prove significant for screenwriters moving forward, as The Thomas Crown Affair may establish a precedent for writers receiving screenplay credit without direct involvement in modernized versions.
