Amazon Developing TV Series Based On THE DEPARTED

The iconic mob vs. cop film The Departed is getting reworked into a television series on Amazon. Obviously, if you're familiar with the film, none of its stars will be reprising their roles. Deadline reports the new series will shift locations from Boston to Chicago and feature a young cop who infiltrates a Latino gang. 

Here's hoping it's good! The Departed was the first rated R film that I paid to see in theaters and probably one of my favorite movies, so I have high expectations. We will keep you updated as we learn more details!

Leonardo DiCaprio, Matt Damon, Jack Nicholson and Mark Wahlberg star in Martin Scorsese's new crime drama "The Departed." "The Departed" is set in South Boston where the state police force is waging an all-out war to take down the city's top organized crime ring.
