Dark Horizons is reporting that Sylvester Stallone is gearing up to direct a remake of a "different" Charles Bronson film. Early reports indicated that Sly was heading towards a remake of
Death Wish, but now it seems he might be directed a redo of
The Mechanic instead.
Word is that MGM is currently looking for a younger actor to star alongside Stallone. Apparently they want either Ryan Gosling, Ben Foster, Cillian Murphy, or even Elijah Wood for the project.
The film will revolve around an aging hitman that takes on a younger protege and shows him the ropes. There is no word on when production will start.

my opinion...Elijah Wood should really obtain this role...He really needs this role.
If he obtains this role, he can kill his stereo type image.He tried to change his image in a small indie movie.But it is not effective at all.
He needs such a big role. The other actors get many chances. However, he gets nothing.
Frodo really spoiled his career.
I think that this chance should be given him.
Stallon's comeback is going to his head.
mite be good
