‘Bourne’ Director Targets Elliot Ness Film Based on ‘Torso’
Paul Greengrass may be hopping from one franchise to another — at least that’s the goal for Paramount as they’re officially negotiating with the Bourne director to helm a new film based on the life of Elliot Ness. If successful, the studio hopes to launch their next big franchise, and while a government agent famous for taking down Al Capone and leading the most prolific Prohibition task force is certainly an unconventional choice, it might prove to be a very smart one, too.
