It could be the same with actors, after Harvey Keitel and Cage, imagine a whole sequence of films with the lieutenant played by the likes of Steve Buscemi, Christian Bale, etc. All putting their slant on it. Like a cool Bond franchise. |
I kind of love that idea. Michael Mann's "Bad Lieutenant" starring Tom Cruise.
Tarantino's starring Bruce Willis.
Lars Von Trier's starring Stellan Skarsgaard.
David Lynch's starring Laura Dern.
