• OLD BOY

ShockTillYouDrop.com recently visited the set of CBS Filmsthriller 7500 and was able to talk to the film's producer, Roy Lee, about hisupcoming projects.

One of them is the Old Boy remake, to be directed by SpikeLee and starring Josh Brolin. "We are planning to shoot 'Old Boy' in Marchand that should start pre-production in late January," he said. "Thisis a brand new script by Mark Protosevich. It is very similar to the film, butProtosevich has added new elements that will throw off the audience who haveseen the original movie because there are new characters and new situationsthat present themselves in a way that change the story but eventually go in thesame direction. The ending will be something audiences--especially fans of theoriginal movie--will be very happy with. Some may consider it a bitdarker."

He added that "there's going to be a differentinterpretation of the hallway scene that is hopefully going to be Spike'ssignature moment in the movie that he wants to show in a way that has neverbeen seen in an action movie."
