The Brazilian filmmaker is already slated to approach a long-gestating reboot of RoboCop, though right away Jose Padilha has an additional plan for his destiny line-up as well. Heat Vision reports a Elite Squad executive is set to helm a latest thriller from Gran Torino bard Nick Schenk. Called Tri-Border, a film, being shot in English, takes place in a barbarous riotous South American section trisected by Brazil, Argentina as well as Paraguay, where competing crime organizations as well as law coercion agencies quarrel for a top hand. Surprisingly, this has zero to do with Kathryn Bigelow’s Triple Frontier, which deals with a same setting.
The story in Tri-Border follows a Boston-based DEA representative who is unwillingly sent to Paraguay for carrying destitute a son of an US senator during a drug raid. The book will try a ins-and-outs of a opposite crime organizations as well as law coercion agencies in a tri-border zone, as a representative strives to assimilate how a place functions in sequence to constraint his sheet behind home, a heading drug dealer. Padilha goes upon to say:
"The idea is to have a political film hidden inside an action film, a film that can entertain and teach people about the tri-border and the international crime in general. It’s a different reality, in a totally different environment: the frontier of three countries, in which one finds many different players operating, ranging from Italian, Chinese and Serbian mafias, to Bolivian, Colombian and Brazilian drug dealers, including Lebanese smugglers suspected of helping Hamas and Hezbollah, as well as corrupted police and politicians from Brazil, Paraguay and Argentina.”
Padilha as well as Schenk have been conducting investigate in a area for a film. Schenk says, “How can we write about something similar to a tri-border area though ever saying it initial hand? I’ve schooled which landlocked Paraguay has a Navy. I’ve additionally schooled which a Brazilian Federal Police as well as a Paraguayan Navy ordinarily sell gunfire upon a stream which separates a dual countries.” Sounds flattering intense, though I’m wondering if this will have any start upon Kathryn Bigelow’s alternative project. Right right away she’s bustling which which untitled Osama Bin Laden/Seal Team Six film, so who knows what will happen. However, with all a great things I’m conference about Elite Squad, we consider Padilha is starting to be a name to keep an eye on, generally with RoboCop.
