Recently, Will Smith has agreed to star in a new drama directed by Michael Mann, called ‘Empire.’
Movieweb gives us this:
While key plot points are being kept under wraps, it is known that the film will be about a wealthy media mogul who plans to control the world. This will be the first time Mann and Smith have worked together since Ali.
This project sounds promising, but I gotta tell you I was NOT a fan of ‘Ali.’ Call me crazy, but the movie in my opinion was dry and boring and I have yet to still watch the entire film. To be quite honest, the last Michael Mann film I really liked was ‘Collateral.’ (Wasn’t a fan of ‘Miami Vice’ either)
Although if plot points are being kept under wraps then it must be something exciting…right?
The film doesn’t have a start date yet, but it will most likely go into production early 2008 to be the upcoming and inevitable strike.
