Walter Hill wanted for Headshot
At this time, Sylvester Stallone wants iconic action director Walter Hill, who is behind such classic films as The Warriors and 48 Hours, to direct Headshot. IM Global, who is backing the film, haven't discounted Walter Hill just yet, but they are also looking at several other directors to take on the job.
This is what Sylvester Stallone had to say about the departure of Wayne Kramer.
"Initially, Mr. Kramer was hired to direct a dark comedy; however his vision was much darker and exceptionally more violent than how the project was originally conceived. It was decided that it would be better for everyone to move on and consequently Mr. Kramer was dismissed by producers earlier this week. There were no volatile clashes, it was simply a professional parting of the ways."
About Walter Hill, Sylvester Stallone had this to say.
"I completely respect Walter's incredible body of work and hopefully this legendary director will become attached to the project."
Headshot is expected to go into production this summer.
Bullet to the Head was released February 1st, 2013 and stars Sylvester Stallone, Sung Kang, Sarah Shahi, Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje, Jason Momoa, Christian Slater, Jon Seda, Holt McCallany. The film is directed by Walter Hill.

Crap, I thought it said Deadshot. I freaked a bit. Either way, looking forward to this.
