Donald Glover corrige l’erreur d’un film d’action de 18 ans dans sa prochaine série TV
Donald Glover Stars in a Modern Remake
Donald Glover is set to star in a modern remake of the 2005 film “Mr. & Mrs. Smith” alongside Maya Erskine. This adaptation aims to take the concept to new heights with a unique direction and writing style.
Who Are Maya Erskine and Donald Glover?
Maya Erskine is best known for her roles in the Hulu comedy series PEN15 and the recent Netflix animated series Blue Eyed Samurai. Besides being an Emmy-winning actor and director for Atlanta and creating the popular Amazon series Swarm, Glover is known for starring in Solo: A Star Wars Story and the celebrated comedy series Community.
Big Expectations for the Television Adaptation
The original movie was best known for the tabloid attention surrounding the real-life romance between Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie. With Donald Glover now at the helm of the television adaptation, the concept can be taken to new heights under his sharp direction and wildly creative writing style. While Mr. & Mrs. Smith was entertaining, it was overshadowed by the tabloid attention and in effect didn’t need to be a “serious” film of the action genre given the star power of its two leads.
Glover’s Unique Take on the Project
Glover himself has said that audiences of his upcoming Prime Video series should not be quick to make comparisons to the original film, as it will be very different. Glover revealed to Entertainment Weekly that he hadn’t even seen the original when he signed on to do the project, saying he “didn’t get” the movie when he finally did see it. That alone should make it clear that his Mr. & Mrs. Smith adaption will probably be nothing like the iconic 2005 original.
Conclusion
In conclusion, “Mr. & Mrs. Smith,” a TV adaptation of the 2005 film, is set to premiere on February 2, 2024. Donald Glover and Maya Erskine will take on the lead roles for the series as spies who are placed in an arranged marriage for an undercover mission only to develop real feelings for each another.
