The Raid (2011) is going to be Remade by Joe Carnahan and Frank Grillo

Indonesian action series "The Raid" will be remade by Joe Carnahan and Frank Grillo. The Raid (2011) was very successful as it became one of the most underrated action movies of all time, I think it deserves so much more recognition than it had. Then there was a sequel, which came out in 2014 and was different, but great as well, so these two movies are exceptional, look them up, they deserve to be watched.  

Joe Carnahan did assure that he has something really special to start with and no one will be disappointed. They will try to reimagine the same plot and make the movie he is a huge fan of. 

I don't know what exactly they came up with to remake it, but it is obvious that this property is very hot, and this movie would have been made even if the plot is bad. I am a Frank Grillo fan. I think he always did a great job, so I suppose he will be a great star in this new film. 

So who knows, maybe this remake will be huge, but now we have only promises with no evidence that this new "Raid" film will be at least respectful to the original. I love when fans who are also filmmakers are making a movie they are big fans of, and in this case, it gives hope, that we won't be disappointed indeed.
