According to Deadline, Gulfstream Pictures has acquired the script to the action thriller The Feud, which is about two Hong Kong families (we assume they’re triads) caught up in a centuries old conflict. The Fued is written by Chad Hayes and Carey W. Hayes, who are currently enjoying the success for their sleeper hit, The Conjuring.
Gulfstream Pictures’ Bill Bindley says: “It’s a big thriller, set in Hong Kong. There is an Asian aspect to it and it is a big global movie by writers who are great with characters and at creating scenes that evoke suspense, as we saw in The Conjuring.”
No word on who will direct. As for the international star power? Chow Yun-fat? Jet Li? Fan Bingbing? Zhang Ziyi? We’ll just have to wait and see. Whatever the case, here’s hoping for a great Asian cast in a Hollywood production. We’ll keep you updated.
