In 2008 Aamir Khan started this trend by making Ghajini which was a remake of a south film & than Salman Khan followed the tradition with Wanted.
All the A lister actors have started doing action remakes to enter into the 100 crore club. After doing some emotional movies like Guzaarish & Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara Hrithik Roshan has also stepped into action. He started off with Agneepath which became very successful & he entered into the 100 crore club. Then he is shooting right now for Krrish 3 where he plays a Superhero. And now he has decided to play the role of Tom Cruise in the remake of Knight & Day. This movie became huge hit in the year 2010.
This remake will be directed by Siddharth Anand & will be produced by Fox Star Studios. Hrithik will start shooting for this movie after he completes shooting for Krrish 3.
This is Siddharth Anand's second film after Anjana Anjaani which he did two years back. But the leading lady opposite Hrithik has not been finalised yet. But soon it will be finalised & an official announcement will be made. Since the co-star has to play the role of Cameron Diaz this is a very tough choice.
James Mangold's Knight & Day is a action-comedy & romantic film & was shot on a very large scale across different parts of the globe. The producers will take the same strategy for the remake also. The film is about a spy who is on the run.
Knight and Day is a romantic action comedy
released in the year 2010. The film was earlier titled as Wichita & then
Trouble Man. The direction was given by James Mangold.
The producer of the movie earlier chose
many actors to play the lead roles in the movie. They are Will Smith, Chris
Tucker & Gerard Butler. But ultimately they ended up with Tom Cruise &
Cameron Diaz. The shooting was done in several places of Massachusetts, Spain
& Austria.
