Farrell up for 'Vice' role


Irish screen star Colin Farrell is in line to play the part of Detective James "Sonny" Crockett in the movie of the 1980s cop classic, Miami Vice.

Universal is in talks with Farrell and Jamie Foxx, who is being targeted to play Detective Ricardo Tubbs, according to Hollywood trade paper, Variety.

The film could even pave the way for the show to return to the small screen.

You didn't think that after Starsky and Hutch was made that a Miami Vice remake/parody wouldn't be coming out? I called it...

So freaking stupid, the only thing to parody about Miami Vice is the terrible cutting-edge 80s fashion. It's like parodying Heat or Collateral or any other dead-serious but uber-stylish Mann project. What BS.

It should be noted that Michael Mann plans on writing, producing and directing this...

If Michael Mann's involved, the only thing left is to get rid of Colin Farrell. The team of Jamie Foxx + Michael Mann can do no wrong, but Colin Farrell keeps turning up in my movies and ruining them.

Micheal Mann should bring back the Collateral team :)

Jamie Foxx = Tubbs
Tom Cruise = Sonny Crockett

Colin Farrell dear god
Yeah Cruise would be a way better choice but Farrell could work too.. I haven't seen a movie where Farrell has completely sucked in it.

How about just calling Don Johnson at the plastic surgery clinic and have him play his old character. He can't be a worse fit than Farrell. PEACE.

I just hope that they will set the movie in the '80, and not in some sort of new, modern urban setting with a hip hop soundtrack and tuned cars. Please god..
