'Bonnie and Clyde' head back to the big screen

It looks like "Limitless" director Neil Burger currently has a lot on his plate. On top of recently taking over the video game adaptation of "Uncharted: Drake's Fortune" for Columbia, Deadline is reporting that the director will be teaming up with screenwriter Sheldon Turner in an attempt to bring the infamous outlaws Bonnie and Clyde back to life.

This new film will be based on the biography by author Jeff Guinn entitled "Go Down Together: The True, Untold Story of Bonnie and Clyde", which provides a less romanticized view of the couple than the 1967 Arthur Penn film.

Yet, before you get all excited about an even darker film about this iconic couple, it should be noted that the film is being produced by Marissa McMahon. She is the wife of Shane McMahon, the son of the pro-wrestling mogul Vince McMahon. While I hope this isn't the case, don't be too surprised if the role made famous by Warren Beatty is given to John Cena.
