Speaking about the project, Jordan has previously said, "The stakes are higher. Still got the fashion, romance."

He further added, "I saw the 1968 Steve McQueen version — the split screens, the style. After Creed, MGM asked what I wanted to do next. I said, 'Thomas Crown Affair.' I need that."

The Thomas Crown Affair is expected to hit theatres on March 5, 2027.
