New Bullitt film coming

Looks like Steven Spielberg finally inked a deal with McQueen's estate for the rights to another movie. Maybe a couple of years away.

Going to be a tough job to follow the original. Hope they don't "fast and furious" any chase scene with impossible fake-oh special effects.

That's hilarious.

For the love of god, though, leave that classic alone. I consider it an existential masterpiece and it has exactly zero to do with the car chase, which is frankly a little cheesy.

If they could somehow work a billiards tournament into the remake then we would have something to talk about over here!

Looks like he's only reviving Frank Bullit the. cop

"Steven Spielberg Developing New ‘Bullitt’ Movie Based on Steve McQueen Character
The project has been described as a new original story based on McQueen's iconic character, rather than a remake of the 1968 film."

Will Bullitt be played by a woman?

That camaro/mustang/challenger mash-up car seems a natural fit in this re-make.

As long as Bullitt is played by a black woman, all will be fine.

I’m trying to think who would be good for the role, and I land on Daniel Craig. He’d be great, except for his recognition as Bond.

Seems hugely stereotypical to put a black woman in a Bullit green Mustang, no?

Bullit has to be an American IMO.

Except for the fact that no one would pay to see him I’d go Matthew Mcconaughey for the role.
