I see a lot of remakes, this is not one of them and it's exciting to bring amazing stars to the table that feel the same such as Simon and Minnie. I'm excited to see them in action together and watch Adam deliver another cerebral movie that makes you think."Disclaimer: This post has been auto-published from an agency feed without any modifications to the text and has not been reviewed by an editor
