Every step was part of a plan. Amazon MGM Studios releases the official trailer for the film starring and directed by Michael B. Jordan, The Thomas Crown Affair.
Are the Windmills Of Your Mind blowing again? That famous song has featured in every version of The Thomas Crown Affair. The original 1968 film starred the legendary Steve McQueen (my idol), Faye Dunaway, Paul Burke, and Jack Weston. In 1999, Pierce Brosnan, Rene Russo, and Denis Leary starred in a remake of the film. Additionally, a 1987 Hong Kong adaptation called Easy Money featured Michelle Yeoh in a female version of the Thomas Crown character. Now, fifty-nine years after the original version hit cinemas, a new version of the story is coming in March of 2027.
This new version is directed by and stars Michael B. Jordan as Crown, with support from Kenneth Branagh, Adria Arjona, Lily Gladstone, Danai Gurira, and Pilou Asbæk. Written by Drew Pearce and Jason Hall, from a story by Pearce and Alan R. Trustman, based on Trustman’s original screenplay from 1968, the film opens on March 5th, 2027. Amazon MGM Studios will distribute the film in the United States and France, while Sony Pictures Releasing International will handle the international distribution of the film. The official trailer for the film has been unveiled. Let’s see what Thomas Crown is getting up to again.
THE PREMISE
Thomas Crown is a billionaire who cleverly steals a painting while another heist fails. Followed by an insurance investigator, the two fall in love during the cat-and-mouse game. Academy Award winner Michael B. Jordan directs, produces, and stars in a visually breathtaking, sensual, and unexpectedly moving heist thriller in which the most dangerous man in the room is the one nobody’s watching.
The Thomas Crown Affair will try to steal the box office when it opens on March 5th, 2027.
