Enjoyed Casino Royale and/or GoldenEye? Then you might be interested in this news. The director who brought us both of those James Bond movies, Martin Campbell, is attached to direct a remake of the 2004 French-language thriller 36 Quai des Orfèvres. Titled in America as just 36, the story revolves around two detectives who try to solve a series of armored car robberies in the hopes of landing a promotion promised to whoever catches the perpetrators. Robert De Niro is both producing and starring in it as well.

Richard Price will do an overhaul of the original screenplay and reimagine the two detectives in their 30s. The original film is currently sitting with a 7.2/10 on IMDb, which means that it at least wasn't that bad, so we can only hope for the best in this American remake. Campbell's got another thriller called Unstoppable that he's working on next, so it won't be until after that is finished that production will start on 36.
