Collider has received some plot details for various Lionsgate films that will be out in the future, and one of those films was for Spike Lee's upcoming remake of Oldboy, starring Josh Brolin and set to begin production sometime next Spring (Collider says that the film will be released sometime next year). The below synopsis sounds very similar to the plot for the original film (as expected, of course), so while not very revealing, it's certainly worth a look...



Cast: Josh Brolin

Director: Spike Lee

Writer: Mark Protosevich

Synopsis:
A man kidnapped and imprisoned on his daughter’s birthday is held captive for fifteen years. Upon his release he embarks on an obsessive mission to find the reason for his imprisonment and soon finds out that his kidnapper has plans for him more tortuous than solitary confinement.


Starring Josh Brolin, Spike Lee's Oldboy begins production early next year, possibly for a 2012/2013 release.
