Mystery Solved? Is Bloom actually remaking THE RED CIRCLE!!!

Original article was accidentally deleted and is now in the vast abyss of the Internet Afterlife. Fuck!

It was a long ass article telling you that Orlando Bloom had dropped out of An Education, the Nick Horny scripted movie which began shooting today. His replacement is Dominic Cooper. All this is detailed in Coming Soon.

The other tidbit and far more juicy news was that Bloom was instead to star in a remake of Jean-Pierre Melville’s stylish classic movie The Red Circle, a news which really bugged and irritated me actually. The remake is to be shot from Korean maestro director Johnny To.

You can find more out about the original classic HERE.

Don’t you just hating losing long-ass articles?

Can’t believe they are remaking this great film.
