Bad Lieutenant le remake

Ahh il en manquait un!

Citation :

Generally when movies get selected for remake treatment, it's to take advantage of potential commercial aspects of the property. Why, then, might someone want to remake a movie as aggressively non-commercial as BAD LIEUTENANT?

But TV guy William Finkelstein (NYPD BLUE, LAW & ORDER) and producer Ed Pressman (THE CROW) plan to do just that. The original 1992 Abel Ferrara flick featured Harvey Keitel as a bottom-feeding, genuine bastard city cop engaging in profuse amounts of gambling, promiscuity, drug abuse, and unwelcome full-frontal nudity, before finding faith while investigating the rape of a nun. It's a real blinding burst of sunshine!
The plan for the update is apparently to continue with similar lurid behavior while exploring more of the character's backstory. Keitel reportedly won't be involved... and since the original film hinges on his fearless performance, it certainly calls the purpose of remake into question.

Extra Tidbit: BAD LIEUTENANT was co-written by Zoe Lund, who played the lead in Ferrara's revenge exploitation flick Ms. 45.

C'est trés drôle ! Non mais c'est un gag ?

OH vous déconnez là??? Non parce que cest portnawak sévère là... quoi que remarque ca ne m'étonnerait pas plus que ça finalement... si ce n'est que ce film est tellement ANTI commercial au possible, ca m'étonne un poil que qui que ce soit veuille le refaire.

The original 'Bad Lieutenant' earned an NC-17 rating for its depiction of a lowlife cop in Gotham.

Nicolas Cage will star in an updated version of 1992's "Bad Lieutenant" with Werner Herzog directing, Edward R. Pressman producing and Avi Lerner's Nu Image/Millennium Films financing.
Project, also called "Bad Lieutenant," is due to be announced at Cannes. Production will start in late summer.

The original pic, produced by Pressman, starred Harvey Keitel and was directed by Abel Ferrara from a screenplay by Ferrara and Zoe Lund.

Story followed the depraved New York police officer of the title, who was heavily involved in drugs, gambling, sex and stealing; the pic received an NC-17 rating.

The new script's penned by Billy Finkelstein, a TV writer with credits on "Murder One," "Law & Order" and "NYPD Blue." Stephen Belafonte, who brought Finkelstein to the project, is also producing, while development was financed by producers Alan and Gabe Polsky.

Along with Lerner, Nu Image/Millennium's Danny Dimbort, Trevor Short and Boaz Davidson will exec produce with Elliot Rosenblatt and Alessandro Camon. Randall Emmett and Cage's Saturn Films are also producing.

Cage is filming "Knowing" in Australia for director Alex Proyas. Herzog's expected to follow "Bad Lieutenant" with Focus' "The Piano Tuner" late this year.
