I came in here to mention him and didnt expect anyone at all to think the same lolPersonally I'd give it a try with Oscar Isacc.

What did Cuba ever do to black people? Black people even name their kids after Cuba (Cuba Gooding Jnr for the role btw)
I like Denzel but there's no way he gets anywhere near Pacino's performance. He doesn't have anything like that much charisma. Especially at like 70 years old. Plus he already did a 'Rise to the Top' crime drama with American Gangster and he was boring as shit
It was only a matter of time before we got a modern black hood remake of Scarface.
It is boring shit. Seriously. Carlito's Way in my opinion was the sequel to Scarface. The problem with gangster rising movies is that there is no arc. Every gangster movie ends with the lead dying or going ro jail. Breaking Bad got really interesting when he was done and wanted to move on but couldn't, which is what made Carlito's Way interesting.
Well I wasn’t trying to be funny, I was trying to be serious. Scarface was made in 1983 and it was set in 1980 as Tony Montana was supposed to be a Cuban refugee. Looking at this decade, and the fact that Denzel is black, I thought that maybe the Haitian refugee situation following the 2010 quake could be a possible backdrop for a film.
To me, Carlito's Way was like a "what if" universe where Tony went to jail instead of getting blasted.
As long as Benicio del Toro plays Manny
What if he's related to Pedro Cerrano?
Denzel is two years away from being a senior citizen. This is ridiculous unless they're completely changing everything about the plot and it centers around a retirement age fellow.
Oh, like Brian De Palma did with the 1983 remake?
