Amazon MGM Studios released a new full trailer for The Thomas Crown Affair on November 12. Michael B. Jordan directs, produces and stars in the reimagining, which opens in theaters on Friday, March 5, 2027. It is his second film as a director, after Creed III.
Jordan plays a debonair art thief, and Adria Arjona plays the insurance investigator sharp enough to catch him. The footage frames it as a cat and mouse romance staged across museums, glossy cities and European castles, with a personal motive behind the thefts and Kenneth Branagh as the target.
This is the story's third trip to the screen. Steve McQueen played the original Thomas Crown in 1968, and Pierce Brosnan took the role in 1999. Jordan has described his version as a reimagining rather than a remake, and the revenge angle is where it parts ways with both.
Jon Batiste is writing the score, and Lily Gladstone and Danai Gurira round out the cast. The trailer sells glamour and action more than the slow chess game that defined the earlier films. Whether Jordan can keep both in the air is the open question until March.
