Michael B. Jordan's Thomas Crown Affair remake

Entities: Kenneth Branagh · Adria Arjona · Michael B. Jordan · Amazon MGM Studios · Thomas Crown

Overview

Amazon MGM Studios has moved from a teaser in late July 2026 to the debut of the first official trailer on 29 July 2026. The trailer expands the film’s visual palette with lavish museum interiors and a prominent Van Gogh “Sunflowers” set‑piece, reinforcing the high‑octane, fashion‑laden heist tone Michael B. Jordan described as a “re‑imagination” of the 1968 classic.

Jordan serves as director, star and producer, portraying billionaire art thief Thomas Crown, whose boredom drives him to orchestrate daring museum robberies. He is opposed by insurance investigator Vicki Anderson, played by Adria Arjona, and faces a formidable antagonist portrayed by Kenneth Branagh. The ensemble also includes Lily Gladstone, Danai Gurira and Pilou Asbæk, with Jon Batiste providing an original score.

The trailer has sparked worldwide buzz and confirmed a staggered theatrical rollout: Brazil will open on 4 March 2027 under the title “Thomas Crown – A Arte do Crime,” while the global release is set for 5 March 2027, with most territories following on 4 March. The film is positioned as Amazon MGM’s flagship spring‑2027 release, with plans for IMAX screenings and a partnership with Jordan’s Outlier Society, highlighting romance, elaborate heist set‑pieces and a modern, high‑stakes art‑theft narrative.

The project continues to build anticipation for Jordan’s first major triple‑role effort, aiming for a stylish, emotionally charged blockbuster in early March 2027.
