Coming Soon through The Hollywood Reporter give us more on the plot of the original...
revolves around two brothers who are forced to negotiate their changing roles and shifting family dynamics when one is sent to war in Afghanistan.
Sheridan is said to be on the look out for 3 A-List actors to fill the lead roles of this flick, presumably 50 Cent won't be on them!
