Spielberg and Will Smith Teaming Up

Variety reports that Steven Spielberg has been waiting years for the ‘perfect’ project to do with Will Smith, and he just might have found it!
The two are reportedly in early discussions to collaborate on an American remake of a Korean flick called Oldboy.
The story centers around a man who gets kidnapped and then held in a shabby cell for 15 years without explanation. He’s suddenly released and given money, a cell phone and clothes and is set on a path to discover who destroyed his life so he can take revenge.
Will would play the kidnapped man with Spielberg directing.
Sounds kinda interesting!
