Michael B. Jordan Casted To Play Tony Montana In Scarface Remake...Spicy CACs Lose Their Minds..

Shaft being black is part of the character.

The Scarface in the 30s was an Italian during the bootlegging era in Chicago.

The Scarface during the 80s was a Cuban coke dealer in Miami.

Scarface‘a character isn’t tied to a race.

The two previous movies have been a reflection of the drug era of the time.

In the original story shaft was white. They made him black in the movie

"In Tidyman's original story Shaft was white, but [Gordon] Parks cast Richard Roundtree as the eponymous hero."
Shaft (1971 film) - Wikipedia

People actually think this is real.

The rumor of MBJ being considered for Scarface was started by some dude trolling on Twitter earlier this year. Newsweek didn't "report" anything.

 

[Prynce]

This is legit something to be upset about. What if they said they remaking the original shaft with George lopez playing shaft. We would legit be heated about it.

We get mad about any non black person playing a black character and this is no different. Even if Michael b Jordan can pull it off it shouldn't happen.

Tony Montana is fictional and Cuba is majority black

nothing wrong with micheal B Jordan

would you complain if it was Laz Alonzo or Faison Love?

 

[DJ Paul's Arm]

After playing weak ass Wallace, MBJ doesn't look right playing a drug lord.

Yes if it was anybody other than a cuban immigrant in america. That changes the entire movie and its not a remake.

The beginning of the movie where they were in tent city or freedom town couldn't be used at all. Meaning they would have to create a new orgin story making it a new movie and not a remake.

If theyre gonna make Michael b Jordan cuban why not use a cuban person?

 

[MajesticLion]

Why would you even gas up MBJ to think he's on Pacino's level of talent at this point in his career?

 

[DaylitoJames]

This shyt gonna be the remake to Superfly status.

A child's version of Scarface is better than the Superfly remake

 

[shopthatwrecks]

People need to leave the classics alone remakes are never the same

remake of remake...think the fans of the 1932 film cried about the 83 film....doubt it

especially with tony bein itailian in the first film...

get a italian to play cuban...lol..

 

[ultraflexed]

They should replace him with Laz Alonzo and say "Is this what you wanted?"

that would be crazy

 

[Chelsea Bridge]

Tony Montana Is not a hero lol.
He’s a drug lord , sadist


Why are they mad about who plays a horrible human being?

in fact I’m more upset at a black man playing that role

[Mortal1]

So is this really confirmed because I remember hearing about this before and it was fake.

 

[Primetime21]

Scarface is overrated.

 

[QU Hectic]

The 83 remake was filled to the brim with jews playing Cubans though

Hector the Toad was played by Al Israel

shyt is a running joke on the lebatard show

Al Isreal was jew ? I read on the IMBD boards back then that he actually was good friends with Pablo Escobar.

 

[Ol’Otis]

his acting skills are blah
but this is fake news

would love to see a story on South Central king/queen pins during the early 80s
