Nicolas Cage will headline an American remake of the 1999 Thai actioneer "Bangkok Dangerous" reports The Baltimore Sun.
The original's directors, Oxide Pang Chun and Danny Pang, will helm the redux scripted by Jason Richman ("Bad Company"). The pair also did the thriller "The Eye", and just completed American feature "Scarecrow" for Sony.
Cage will play a cold-blooded hit man who heads to Bangkok to pull off four jobs, and winds up falling in love with a local girl and bonding with his errand boy. Shooting begins in August in Asia.
