Clive Owen And Mia Wasikowska Offered Roles In Old Boy Remake (Eric's London)

21 December


Both Clive Owen and Mia Wasikowska have been offered roles in the Spike Lee directed, Josh Brolin starring remake of Old Boy, Twitch Film.

Colin Firth was previously offered the main villain role but has apparently turned it down, with Lee now apparently turning to his Inside Man star, Owen, to take up the part. Owen has been sliding a little of late, and played third fiddle to Jason Statham and Robert De Niro in the dire, Killer Elite, but has the Dublin shot thriller Shadow Dancer to come out in March. The gorgeous and talented Wasikowska would take the lead female role, which, for anyone who has seen the Korean version, is imperative to the plot.

Wasikowska was outstanding in the Gabriel Byrne show, In Treatment, and has been the best thing about the likes of Alice in Wonderland before. She'll next be seen opposite Glenn Close in another Irish shot film, Albert Nobbs.
