Michael B. Jordan’s ‘The Thomas Crown Affair’ Trailer Reveals New Heist Remake
Amazon MGM Studios released the first official trailer for a new remake of The Thomas Crown Affair. Oscar‑winner Michael B. Jordan directs, stars in and produces the film, which reimagines the 1968 classic (and its 1999 version) as a personal, high‑stakes art‑theft thriller. The story follows billionaire thief Thomas Crown, played by Jordan, whose boredom with his elite lifestyle drives him to orchestrate daring museum heists, including a Van Gogh “Sunflowers” theft. He is pursued by insurance investigator Vicki Anderson, portrayed by Adria Arjona, and faces a powerful antagonist played by Kenneth Branagh. The ensemble also includes Lily Gladstone, Danai Gurira and Pilou Asbæk. Jordan said he wanted a “re‑imagination,” not a reboot, adding higher emotional stakes, fashion and romance. Grammy‑winner Jon Batiste composed the original score. The film is slated for theatrical release on March 5 2027 (March 4 2027 in Brazil, where it is titled “Thomas Crown – A Arte do Crime”). The trailer has generated worldwide buzz and highlighted the film’s stylish action, romance and art‑theft premise.
