Dexter Fletcher Tackling Remake of 'The League of Gentlemen'

Dexter Fletcher , perhaps best known for helming Elton John biopic Rocketman , is attached to direct The League of Gentlemen , Paramount Pictures’ reimagining of a 1960 British heist movie.

Bek Smith, who earned a story credit on the billion-dollar-grossing Moana 2 , wrote the script.

The feature project is described as a modern-day remake of the 1960 movie of the same name. That film, which adapted a 1958 novel by John Boland, told of former British Army officers who rob a bank in London. Jack Hawkins and Richard Attenborough were among the stars.
