In the current climate of remakes, reboots, reimaginings, reimagings, recalibrations or whatever the hip ‘n’ happening phrase of the week is, you can now add Face/Off to the list.

Via Deadline, John Woo’s 1997 effort is getting the redo treatment. 22 Jump Street and The Cloverfield Paradox’s Oren Uziel has been brought in to write the film for Paramount.

For those not around in the ‘90s, Face/Off saw Jon Travolta as an FBI agent and Nicolas Cage as a terrorist who literally swap faces to try and foil each other’s plans.

Expect more on this as it continues to develop.
