Who could possibly tackle a third take on this cool-as-you-like crook thriller? Michael B. Jordan, that&#8217;s who. And if the first trailer for the director-star&#8217;s first live-action film since Oscar winner <em>Sinners<\/em> is anything to go by, then we&#8217;re in for a slick, sexy, stylish fresh take on the time-tested classic.
