A source said: “Guy has been on the case with the idea of making a musical recently.
“He had been throwing ideas around with JASON STATHAM about writing their own musical. They were joking that it would be a cross between Worzel Gummidge and Bullitt.
“Guy has had a lot of meetings with top studio bosses about other projects but the Guys And Dolls idea really tickled him.
“He is torn between keeping the script true to the original in New York and taking it to familiar surroundings in London.”
The 1955 film, based on the hit Broadway musical, was all about a bloke who wanted to stay out with his pals every night gambling rather than spend time at home with his religious missus.
It is painful enough that Hollywood plans on remaking this classic Broadway show and movie, but seriously with all the directors out there why oh why do they have to use Guy Ritchie. I am still not over how sh!tty Swept Away. The only way I might consider seeing it is if he gets Craig Bierko to reprise the role he is currently playing on Broadway in the show.
