Michael Mann to Direct Remake of Acclaimed Korean Crime Thriller 'Veteran'

Director Michael Mann is collaborating with CJ ENM to develop a U.S. adaptation of the South Korean crime thriller "Veteran." It is uncertain whether Mann will direct the film or only take on production and writing credits. The project was put on hold during the Hollywood screenwriters' strike, and there is no clear timeline for its development.
