MBJ Faces Higher Stakes Directing Thomas Crown Affair
13 Mar
Summary
- Jordan finds directing Thomas Crown Affair more demanding than Creed III.
- Shorter workdays require more intense efficiency for the new film.
- The Thomas Crown Affair remake is slated for release on March 5, 2027.
Michael B. Jordan is currently navigating the demanding production of a remake of The Thomas Crown Affair, a project he is both directing and starring in. This directorial endeavor presents a stark contrast to his experience with Creed III, which received significant critical acclaim.
Jordan shared with Vanity Fair that the current film's production involves shorter working days, necessitating a more concentrated and efficient approach to filmmaking. This differs from the Creed III set, where he had the advantage of working with a cast and crew familiar with the franchise.
The dual role of directing and acting in The Thomas Crown Affair adds another layer of complexity, as Jordan works with individuals he has not collaborated with previously. The film is set for release on March 5, 2027, marking a significant future milestone for Jordan's directorial career.
