If you missed out on Kenneth Branagh’s action-packed 2013 production of Macbeth, which originated at the Manchester International Festival and was hailed by critics as “thrilling,” “inspired,” and “mesmerizing,” fear not. The five-time Oscar nominee announced this week that he has plans to reprise the production, and if all goes according to plan, Martin Scorsese himself will capture it for the big screen.

Speaking on BBC Radio's Kermode and Mayo’s Film Review (via What’s On Stage), Branagh revealed, “We will remount the [Macbeth] production and all things being well Mr. Scorsese will direct a film version of that production. . .Fingers are hovering above pieces of paper. Everybody wants to do it, it's just a question of schedules. I'm very very hopeful it's going to happen.”

The 2013 play was directed by Rob Ashford and Branagh, with Branagh starring as the title character and Alex Kingston (E.R. and Dr. Who) co-starring as Lady Macbeth. Their take on the Shakespeare tragedy was an immersive one, placing the audience on the front lines of the Scotland-set power struggle. The approach was so effective that the New York Times fawned over its Park Avenue Armory show, writing, “This is the summer blockbuster that we wait for every year and too seldom find at the multiplexes, one of those action-packed, spectacle-drenched shows that sweep you right into their fraught, churning worlds and refuse to release you until the lights come up — and maybe not even then. Of course, the dialogue here is a bit richer than that of films inspired by comic books. But it’s also a whole lot tastier, and there’s not a line spoken that doesn’t seem to have grown organically from the wicked hurly-burly on the stage.”

Branagh added that he hoped Scorsese’s film would be “very impressionistic” and “very abstract.” Although there have been plenty of Macbeth movies—with a new adaptation starring Michael Fassbender and Marion Cotillard due out this year—the trailer for Branagh’s 2013 production below proves that his Macbeth is indeed a different beast entirely.
