Almost as soon as Another Round became an international hit, an American remake was rumored to be in the works. Listeners of the Awards Radar Podcast may recall that Joey had said to bank on it happening, and even put forth some casting speculation. More recently, rumors of Leonardo DiCaprio potentially starring in a remake had been floating out in the world. Well, today we know who’s going to direct the film, and it’s an interesting name.
According to Deadline, Chris Rock will helm the English language take on Another Round. No word yet on if DiCaprio will be in line still for the Mads Mikkelson role (Mikkelson himself could certainly return, too), or if perhaps Rock has his eyes on it as well. Regardless, it will be sought after, while this news continues to further Rock’s filmmaking career. This immediately becomes a very interesting project in development, so more on this one soon.
