sp; width="105" height="25" align="center">   With two little seen indie movies and the quickly panned "Alexander" resulting in not the best year for Irish spunkster Colin Farrell, the boy is now trying something far more mainstream - the Michael Mann-directed, Universal Pictures big screen version of "Miami Vice". As previously announced, Farrell will play Det. James "Sonny" Crockett and just the other day he spoke with the Chicago Sun-Times about his involvement which is still not locked in - "I'm not trying on those jackets just yet because I haven't signed, although I'd do anything to work with Michael Mann." Why would Farrell sign on to yet another TV adaptation so soon after "S.W.A.T."? "The script is great. The director is great. The worst thing about the project is the title, but as a piece in and of itself it's brilliant...[It] goes deep into the undercover world. It's Mann doing his heavy and tough stuff, with the kind of great dialogue you saw in 'Heat' and 'Collateral'." Thanks to 'Mammy'
