Russell Brand wants to update Arthur

Russell Brand is developing a remake of 1981 comedy Arthur for Warner Bros. The project may turn into a potential star vehicle for the Brit comedian. The original story was about a boozy rascal who will inherit a large sum of money if he marries an heiress his family approves of. However, when Arthur falls in love with a working-class woman, his family makes him choose between love or money. Brand is currently meeting with writers to pen the project.
