Cameron Diaz Joins Colin Firth for the Coen Brothers' Scripted "Gambit"

Remember the 1966 movie "Gambit" starring Michael Caine and Shirley Maclaine? The actors played two criminals who created an elaborate scheme to con millionaire Mr. Shahbandar played by Herbert Lom.

Well, the great Coen brothers wrote a script based on the original and now, Cameron Diaz is joining Oscar front-runner Colin Firth for the remake according to The Hollywood Reporter.

Michael Hoffman, the guy who gave us "The Last Station, " is attached to direct and will begin shooting the movie in London in May.

I can't wait for the Coen brothers' take on the film. The original movie was marketed as ""Go Ahead Tell The End - It's Too Hysterical To Keep Secret - But Please Don't Tell The Beginning!" Why? Because the film was told in reverse with a twist that happened in the beginning but the punchline was saved for the end. It was clever storytelling.
