(03/10/06) According to "The Hollywood Reporter", the Weinstein brothers have acquired the worldwide rights to the "Crane - Iron Pentalogy," and plan to bring the series to the stage and screen. The possible film versions may include prequels and sequels to Crouching Tiger, which will not itself be remade for the screen. The brothers hope to persuade Ang Lee to return as the director of the Chinese-language franchise.
Being a huge fan of CTHD, I hope it happens, but having the Weinsteins involved scares me. Maybe Ang Lee has garnered enough praise and respect to avoid major input from them?
