Danny Ramirez (“Top Gun: Maverick”) is set to star in and produce another “Scarface” movie.

Rather than remaking Brian De Palma’s 1983 film, the project will be a modern take on Armitage Trail’s 1930 novel, which was adapted into Howard Hawks’ 1932 classic. The novel is in the public domain, while De Palma’s Miami-set version, still owned by Universal, remains untouched.

Producer Tom Culver tells Deadline:

We want to modernize it, adapting the original novel. Obviously, there’s the Pacino legacy of it from the ’80s and then the original 1932 movie, but I think it’s ripe for modernizing, and to have someone like Danny in the lead is really exciting.

The new version of “Scarface” has secured development financing, with the intent of “keeping things contemporary and steering clear of nostalgia.”
