Looks like the Hong Kong film
Confession of Pain will be the latest film to get the Hollywood remake treatment:
American Remake of "Confession of Pain" On Board. American film companies are negotiating the rights to remake the film, directed by Andrew Lau and Alan Mak, after the success of the US version of their film
Infernal Affairs ...a little blockbuster we here know as
The Departed. With the film looking like a strong Oscar contender, it's no wonder someone out there wants to cash in on some repeat success. (If you haven't seen the original
Infernal Affairs, put that sucker in your Netflix queue right now.) The article also notes that Andrew Lau has plans to direct a Hollywood action flick with an English language script and American cast in June.
