Amazon MGM has released a new full trailer for Michael B. Jordan's upcoming re-imagination of The Thomas Crown Affair

Directing, producing, and starring, Jordan plays a debonair art thief pursued by an insurance investigator played by Adria Arjona

Amazon MGM has released a new full trailer for The Thomas Crown Affair, offering a closer look at Michael B. Jordan’s upcoming re-imagination of the classic heist thriller. Serving as Jordan’s sophomore feature as a director, the project also sees him produce and star in the lead role originally made famous by Steve McQueen alongside Faye Dunaway in 1968 and later played by Pierce Brosnan opposite Rene Russo in 1999.

Described by Jordan as a “re-imagination” rather than a conventional remake or reboot, the film follows a debonair art thief (Jordan) locked in a high-stakes cat-and-mouse game with a sharp insurance investigator (Adria Arjona). Previewed in footage spanning august museums, slick cities, and European castles, the story pairs romance with wire-assisted aerial stunts and a personal mission of revenge targeting Kenneth Branagh’s character—underscored by the catchphrase, “Revenge is a work of art.”

Alongside Jordan, Arjona, and Branagh, the ensemble cast features Lily Gladstone, Danai Gurira, Pilou Asbæk, and Aiysha Hart. Musical accompaniment is handled by Oscar, BAFTA, Golden Globe, and eight-time Grammy winner Jon Batiste, who composes the score following the original 1968 film’s Best Original Score Oscar win for “Windmills of Your Mind.”

Amazon MGM’s The Thomas Crown Affair is set for release on March 5, 2027.
