'Man on Fire' series @Netflix starring Yahya Abdul-Mateen II

[The Pledge]

Weak.

Greenlit that Watchmen, no one asking for Man on Fire as a series.

So did Netflix do this because the movie's streaming data is consistently good, or are they just throwing darts at a wall in order to pick which old movie/IP/etc they will turn into a "franchise." Either way this is idiotic. Man On Fire was not some big hit movie, and it's success on DVD/Blu Ray/streaming is moreso a testament to Denzel (and the great Tony Scott, RIP) than anything else. Neither of which will be involved in a show so why do this...

It's amazing the lengths Netflix/Amazon/etc go to in order to avoid making anything interesting or new with black characters. Everything has to be a remake or sequel or rehash...

Was "The Lincoln Lawyer" with Matthew McConaughey that big of a hit
That's also based on a book series like Man on Fire and it on 3 seasons and counting at Netflix.

How does this dude get all these premier roles ? He’s not even like that as an actor. He never has been.

Yale Drama School Alum Network is beastly.

Especially Black Actors/Actresses

I never knew the Denzel one was a remake of an 80's flick with Scott Glenn and Joe Pesci. Denzel and Tony Scott made classics. RIP Tony Scott.

If they try to replicate Tony’s signature visual style they better do it justice.
