Luca Guadagnino to Direct New Scarface Movie, Written by the Coen Brothers

Music, News

Luca Guadagnino has been tapped to direct a new reboot of Scarface, as Variety reports. The director of Call Me by Your Name and Suspiria will be working with a script written by the Coen Brothers, who came aboard the project several years ago. According to a press info, the film will be set in Los Angeles and is a “reimagining of the core immigrant story told in both the 1932 and 1983 films.”

The most widely-known and referenced version of Scarface is the 1983 version, directed by Brian De Palma and starring Al Pacino in the iconic role of Tony Montana. The original 1932 film was based upon the 1930 novel by Armitage Trail, heavily inspired by the life of mobster Al Capone. In 2018, Guadagnino announced that he was creating a movie based on Bob Dylan’s 1975 album Blood on the Tracks.
