This was supposed to have been made right after Jude Law played Michael Caine's part in the Alfie re-make. I thought the box office failujre of that film put the kabosh on this. Glad to see it's still going to get made, though I suspect the audience won'tbe ther either.

Sleuth (1972) is being remade by Kenneth Branagh. Script by Harold Pinter and Anthony Schaffer. The film stars Michael Caine (in the part played by Olivier). Caine's old part will be played by Jude Law.

Is this film going to be Caine's bid for the lead Oscar which has eluded him so far? However, 3 awards for him WOULD be rather excessive!
