He was Tony Camonte, an Italian immigrant, rather than Cuban Tony Montana in the original Scarface. I don't see why another remake wouldn't change it again.
In fact it would be in their best interest to change it, given Tony Montana is an iconic character for Pacino, and any imitation of the same character would be ripped to shreds.
Assuming this isn't phony, given the source is apparently sketchy.

It's a humor/parody site. Read the other ridiculous, not really funny headlines.

You know as well as I do, you can't expect anyone to actually read things these days, let alone take 30 seconds to research something.
My sentiments exactly.

They're likely not doing anything at all. Everything about this rumor sounds fucking fake. The site is sketchy as fuck, and there's no sourcing to anything that's being quoted.
Also, there's this:
Just a reminder:
Reading bullshit on reddit isn't really reading. You have to pay attention to what's being said, who it's being said by, and whether or not the outlet you're using as a source deserves any sort of legitimacy at all.
Simply sharing bullshit without reading it closely (or reading it at all) is problematic as fuck for reasons that should be increasingly obvious for anyone living in America at the moment.
It still perpetuates the same bullshit of Hispanics being underrepresented in Hollywood, even in the face of major Hispanic roles existing.

I'm personally offended on Leo's behalf that you guys thought Leo would sign up for this.

Oh God. Fake news. So there is a chance Fuqua might make it instead then after all....

This might be watchable if Sofia is playing Tony and Leo is playing Elvira
Oh, I didn't read far enough into the thread. Oh well.

I knew this was fake news when I couldn't find the source anywhere else. Typical!
This story is fake but a new Scarface is in the works.

Doesn't help that almost all of us on page 1 were too lazy to click the link from our phones before posting.

Y'all remake hating bastards are going to eat crow when this film comes out.
Assuming this story is real. Source seems weird and I don't see the movie on Pablo Larrain's imdb...

The original Scarface is far from a perfect movie, so I'm all for a remake.
Maybe in this version the second half doesn't shit itself.

I mean I personally prefer the 1932 version but I'm not going to undermine the relevancy of the 1983 Scarface which is so iconic in popular culture I would go as far to call it the most famous Gangster movie in history, what's the point? no one is ever going to hold a candle to Pacino in that role such a shameless cash grab.

Leo sounds really miscast in this. But I'll give him the benefit of the doubt since he's been on a roll recently.
