The Crazy, Stupid, Love team wants to get the band back together. Directors Glenn Ficarra and John Requa just made a deal with Warner Bros. to direct their script Focus, and Deadline reports that they want to reteam Emma Stone and Ryan Gosling from last year’s successful dramedy. The new project is called Focus and centers on a veteran con man who becomes romantically involved with a newcomer to the business. Expectedly (in a business based on deceit), things don’t exactly work out and the complications of their previous encounter “haunt them when they meet up again in the future.” Hit the jump for more.

I really liked the first 2/3 of Crazy, Stupid, Love (before it devolved into a farce), and I’ll see Gosling and Stone in literally anything. I think they made a great romantic duo and would love to see them tango once more as con artists. Deadline notes that it’s still early days so Gosling and Stone haven’t yet been officially approached, but they are the desired leads of Ficarra and Requa.

Gosling is set to film two Terrence Malick films later this year, and is still developing a Logan’s Run remake with Drive director Nicholas Winding Refn. He recently wrapped Only God Forgives, also with Refn. As for Stone, she’s apparently one of the top contenders to star opposite Johnny Depp in The Thin Man remake and she’ll star this summer in The Amazing Spider-Man. Whether Stone and Gosling reteam for Focus or not, they’ll be see onscreen together again later this year in the period crime drama The Gangster Squad.

格倫·費(fèi)卡拉與約翰·雷夸在合作執(zhí)導(dǎo)《我愛(ài)你莫里斯》之前一直是編劇檔,而《瘋狂愚蠢的愛(ài)》也是高斯林的第一部喜劇片。高斯林與艾瑪在銀幕上的化學(xué)反應(yīng)讓兩位導(dǎo)演十分滿(mǎn)意,因此希望再度與他倆合作。這兩位演員日前的檔期滿(mǎn)滿(mǎn),高斯林忙于拍攝《生命之樹(shù)》導(dǎo)演泰倫斯·馬力克的新作《非法》,艾瑪則要與約翰尼·德普合演《瘦人》,此外還有《超凡蜘蛛俠》的密集宣傳在等著她。

不過(guò),不管他倆能否接下邀約繼續(xù)合作,今年上演的《匪幫傳奇》中我們都可以看到他倆的聯(lián)袂出現(xiàn)。
