Josh Brolin Is The New Oh Dae-Su in Spike Lee's 'Oldboy' Remake

After you have word recently that Spike Lee will be the guy behind your camera about the lengthy-looked forward to remake of Chan-wook Park's 'Oldboy,' it appears like Spike finds his leading guy in the one and only Josh Brolin. Since he's finished filming 'Men in Black III' alongside Will Cruz (who had been a lengthy-rumored option for the role) but still includes a part in Jason Reitman's 'Labor Day' to defend myself against, Deadline is confirming that Brolin will begin filming 'Oldboy' in June 2012. For individuals not aware, 'Oldboy' would be a 2005 South Korean revenge film in regards to a middle-aged father who finds themself kidnapped and held captive inside a makeshift prison for fifteen years with no explanations or any connection with the outdoors world. Eventually he finds themself launched back to society and starts searching everywhere to exact his revenge on whomever locked him up. Still not sure on the release date or any extra casting news, but when he plays his cards right, we believe this may be the role that finally will get Brolin that Oscar. Tough to top exactly what the great Min-sik Choi did using the role, but as lengthy as he's awesome with raw octopus, Brolin should work. What exactly would you think about Brolin as Oh Dae-Su?
