'Snatch' TV Series in Production: Brad Pitt to do a Cameo?

Fans of Guy Ritchie's 2000 heist movie Snatch are going to find themselves hooked at their Internet TV network, as Sony has just ordered a 10-episode, one-hour drama series to be based on Snatch. The real question that comes in mind when one talks about Snatch is Brad Pitt. Is he going to feature in the series?

Snatch is a heist-comedy film featuring an ensemble cast. The film contained a non-linear narratives of two plot -- one following a search for a stolen diamond and the other one followed a small-time boxing promoter who finds himself under the wrath of a ruthless gangster. Along with Pitt, Snatch featured Benicio del Toro, Dennis Farina, Alan Ford, Jason Flemyng, Robbie Gee, Rade Šerbedžija and Jason Statham. The film was made against a budget of $10 million and it grossed a total of $30 million in the USA. Apart from becoming a cult movie, Snatch also appeared on Empire Magazine's 2008 poll of the 500 greatest movies of all time.

Variety reported that the free, ad-supported Internet TV network Crackle has announced the new show at its 2016 upfront presentation in New York. Crackle did not announce the expected release date for Snatch TV series, but we are hoping to see the drama by the end of this year.

According to Independent, the team behind Crackle was really impressed with spin-off of Fargo movie and it's success made them to give green signal to start production for Snatch TV series.

Along with Snatch, Crackle has also announced the renewals of The Art of More, Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee and SuperMansion.

Pitt is currently busy shooting David Michôd's War Machine and Allied with Marion Cotillard. So, we are not sure to see him in the TV series but wouldn't it be interesting to see him saying, "D'ya like dogs" one more time?
