Michael B. Jordan and Adria Arjona star in 'The Thomas Crown Affair'
Adria Arjona may not be the star or director of the upcoming The Thomas Crown Affair remake from Oscar winner Michael B. Jordan, but she certainly stole the show in the first trailer.
In his first starring role since winning the Academy Award for Best Actor for Sinners, Michael B. Jordan stars opposite Adria Arjona in the Amazon MGM Studios film, which hits theaters on March 5, 2027.
Jordan’s movie will be the third iteration of the character, having previously been portrayed by Steve McQueen in 1968 and Pierce Brosnan in 1999.
The official trailer for The Thomas Crown Affair features as much Adria Arjona as it does Michael B. Jordan
While Jordan is clearly the star of the film, Arjona’s character is featured in the trailer practically as much as Jordan’s titular Thomas Crown, and certainly has the most eye-catching moments.
In addition to Jordan and Arjona, the cast also includes Kenneth Branagh, Lily Gladstone, Danai Gurira, and Pilou Asbæk. Amazon MGM confirmed the cast and release date.
The film follows Thomas Crown, a wealthy businessman who steals valuable works of art despite having the money to buy them. His relationship with the woman investigating his crimes complicates both his schemes and her efforts to catch him.
Jordan follows Steve McQueen and Pierce Brosnan in playing the title character. McQueen starred opposite Faye Dunaway in the original 1968 film, which centered on a bank robbery, while the 1999 remake, starring Brosnan and Rene Russo, shifted the action to the world of art theft, a theme that Jordan’s film is keeping.
The new film also marks Jordan’s return to directing after making his feature directorial debut with Creed III in 2023, in which he reprised his role as boxer Adonis Creed.
As for Arjona, in addition to The Thomas Crown Affair, 2027 will also see her starring in Man of Tomorrow in what many fans expect to be a debut as Wonder Woman (although, given the recent firing of James Gunn, a potentially short-lived stint).
The Thomas Crown Affair will hit theaters nationwide on March 5, 2027, before streaming on Prime Video at a later date. You can also check out our interview with Arjona from earlier this year below.
