Alain Delon set to star in Johnnie To film

Alain Delon, one of the most revered French actors ever, for his seminal roles in PURPLE NOON, ROCCO AND HIS BROTHERS, and one of my favorite films of all time, LE SAMOURAI, has agreed to star in Hong Kong auteur Johnnie To's next film. To what the role will be for the now 72 year old legend, there are no details yet. Shooting commences at the end of the year. I'm salivating already! Thanks to Twitch for the update!
