The rumor mill is busy with Tobey Maguire and Jake Gyllenhaal’s involvement in Jim Sheridan’s “Brothers” for Relativity Media. It is said that the two actors are in negotiations to star in the film.
The film, a remake of Susanne Bier’s Danish-language war drama, centers on a man (Maguire) who is sent to fight in Afghanistan while his black-sheep brother (Gyllenhaal) cares for his wife and child.
In the remake, which David Benioff is writing, Gyllenhaal would play the younger brother and Maguire the older one.Bier’s film, which was released in 2004, stars Connie Nielsen, Ulrich Thomsen and Nikolaj Lie Kaas.
“Brothers” is scheduled to begin shooting in early November.
Relativity most recently produced the Russell Crowe-Christian Bale starrer “3:10 to Yuma,” which recently opened at No. 1.
