Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid are American Western mythological figures who existed. Outlaws who won sympathy and met a tragic end in South America, as the movie classic Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid immortalized.

The 1969 film, starring Paul Newman and Robert Redford, is the biggest pop reference of the criminal duo, and no one can blame fans because having two of the most beautiful and beloved actors in cinema, in a feature with a spectacular soundtrack, is a success. absolute. It’s no surprise then that a remake ends up being thought of… and approved.

The story of the two had several versions and actors bringing it to life, but we are about to win one more. The Russo brothers, Joe and Anthony, who signed the best Avengers, announced that they are working on an adaptation that will have Regé-Jean Page and Glen Powell in the main roles. The platform will be Amazon Prime Video.

If you’re wondering, Regé-Jean (Bridgerton) will be Butch Cassidy and Glen (Top Gun), Sundance Kid. What worries me the most is not the casting, but the argument that the story takes place “supposedly takes place in an alternative America”. I trust the directors, but certain classics are called that because they’re already perfect.

It doesn’t have a premiere date yet. Let’s follow!
