Michael B. Jordan popped up at CinemaCon to offer hints at his new version of The Thomas Crown Affair.

The star appeared in a video segment at Amazon MGM Studios’ presentation Wednesday, where he told the crowd that he wished he could attend the Las Vegas event but was busy working on the film in London. Jordan directs and stars opposite Taylor Russell in the heist feature.

“This isn’t just another remake,” Jordan said. He also added, “It’s a kind of movie that demands the big screen.”

Amazon MGM exec Kevin Wilson, who was on the stage, shared that the movie “promises to surprise audiences with a few modern twists.”

The Thomas Crown Affair originated with director Norman Jewison’s 1968 film starring Steve McQueen and Faye Dunaway in the story of an insurance investigator working to track down the perpetrator of a bank heist. It landed two Oscar nominations.
