http://deadline.com/2016/07/the-russo-b ... 201782686/Wäre eigentlich ideal für Cinemax oder Starz gewesen, aber Hulu zeigt ja auch immer mehr, dass sie es ernst meinen. Grandios wäre es, wenn sie die Optik und die Endzeit-Vision gefiltert durch 80-er Jahre Augen beibehalten, aber auch eine weniger cheesige Modernisierung könnte interessant wären. Falls die Russos den Piloten nicht selbst inszenieren, sollen sie Walter Hill höchstpersönlich an Bord holen.
The Russo Brothers are taking a breather from the Marvel world to adapt cult classic film The Warriors as a one-hour drama with Paramount TV and Hulu. The brothers will re-imagine Walter Hill’s iconic 1979 film, itself an adaptation of Richard Price’s classic novel of the same name. Their take will honor the original film while adding its own unique brand of grit, pulp, sex and violence. The Russo brothers will team with writer Frank Baldwin on the series. There is no director attached yet.
The film was set in 1979, at a time when parts of New York still resembled war-torn Mogadishu, torn apart by rivalry between deadly gangs. A charismatic leader summons these street gangs of New York City in a bid to take it over. When he is killed, one of the gangs, The Warriors, are falsely blamed for his death and must fight their way home while every other gang is hunting them down to kill them. Hill’s film remains a classic of its genre. Who, for example, can forget the psychotic character’s Luther call for the Warriors to “Come out and play.” The cast included Michael Beck and James Remar.
