Michael B. Jordan’s The Thomas Crown Affair Remake Unveils New Trailer
Michael B. Jordan’s upcoming action thriller remake has revealed a new look, building anticipation for the actor’s next major theatrical release.
Jordan has become one of Hollywood’s most popular actors, with his career reaching new heights following the release of Ryan Coogler’s vampire film Sinners. After collaborating with Coogler on several projects, including both Black Panther films, the actor achieved another major milestone at the Academy Awards, winning his first Best Actor Oscar following his first nomination in the category.
Following the success of Sinners, Jordan is preparing for his next theatrical project, an action thriller remake titled The Thomas Crown Affair.
The Thomas Crown Affair Unveils a New Trailer
Amazon MGM Studios has released a new trailer for The Thomas Crown Affair, offering a closer look at the film’s central relationship and heist storyline.
The trailer highlights the cat-and-mouse dynamic between Jordan’s character, Thomas Crown, a billionaire who steals valuable paintings, and Ms. Bennett, played by Adria Arjona (Man of Tomorrow). As Bennett investigates Crown, the two become involved in a passionate romance.
Jordan takes on both the leading role and directing duties for the upcoming film. It marks the third screen adaptation of the classic heist story, following the original 1968 film starring Steve McQueen and the 1999 remake featuring Pierce Brosnan.
The Thomas Crown Affair is scheduled to arrive in theaters on March 5, 2027.
Michael B. Jordan and Adria Arjona Lead the Cast
Jordan and Arjona are expected to attract considerable attention to the Amazon MGM Studios production as they enter 2027 with several high-profile projects.
Jordan follows his Oscar-winning performance in Sinners with the animated fantasy film Swapped, which was released earlier this year. The movie has reportedly become Netflix’s eighth most-watched film of all time, recording 144.9 million views during its first 91 days.
Meanwhile, Arjona is set to appear in James Gunn’s upcoming DC sequel, Man of Tomorrow. The film is scheduled for a theatrical release on July 9, 2027. Arjona has also been the subject of speculation surrounding a possible portrayal of DC’s Wonder Woman.
The cast also features several well-known performers, including actor and director Kenneth Branagh, Oscar-nominated Lily Gladstone (Killers of the Flower Moon), Jordan’s Black Panther co-star Danai Gurira (The Walking Dead), and Pilou Asbæk (Game of Thrones).
The project adds another action thriller to Jordan’s filmography, which already includes titles such as Tom Clancy’s Without Remorse, written by Yellowstone franchise creator Taylor Sheridan.
The Thomas Crown Affair Marks Jordan’s Second Directorial Feature
Beyond starring in the film, Jordan continues to expand his career behind the camera. The Thomas Crown Affair will be his second directorial feature, following his directorial debut with 2023’s Creed III.
The film served as the latest chapter in the modern Rocky franchise led by Sylvester Stallone. Creed III performed strongly at the global box office, earning $276.1 million worldwide.
With another major directing project on the way, it remains to be seen whether Jordan can achieve an even bigger box office result with The Thomas Crown Affair when it arrives in theaters in 2027.
