I saved the first post on the other one, since it contains some useful information: Snabba Cash (Easy Money) was a big hit in Sweden in 2010 and got a lot of notice at the Berlin and Toronto film festivals. In April 2010, after a bidding war, Warner Brothers won a two-year option on a U.S. remake, with Zac Efron starring and producing through his Ninjas Runnin' Wild production company. In October 2010, scriptwriter Noah Oppenheim was attached to write the script. The basic plot idea is "a poor college student poses as wealthy, but when he falls for a rich girl, he gets involved in organized crime to keep up the pretense." You can see the Swedish trailer here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TfHkGBywm_I Jens Lapidus, author of the novel on which the film is based, told the French magazine Allociné: "Actually, Warner Bros just purchased the rights to “Easy Money”. They are currently working on it and Zac Efron will play the role of JW." Zac Efron? Isn’t JW too dark and complex of a character in comparison to what Zac Efron usually does? "It’s true that Zac Efron is viewed as the nice boy that all the teenage girls love, and he couldn’t be more different than JW, personality wise. But that’s exactly why Warner Bros chose him. I think it’s also Zac’s wish to break out of his clean-cut image a bit. To play such a complex and serious character like JW is a real challenge for him and I think that it’s what he’s looking for right now." |
