Ang Lee to Direct Vin Diesel in 'Kojak'?


About this time last year we learned the writers of Skyfall would be penning a feature film based on famous bald-headed detective, Kojak, played by none other than fellow chrome dome, Vin Diesel. Nothing has really been made of the project since, as Diesel has been busy with Fast & Furious 7 and teasing his fans about his future Marvel stuff. But now it appears Diesel has a director for the film in mind, and it's Oscar-winner Ang Lee.

Diesel hit up his ever-busy Facebook page and responded to a fan's question about directors he'd like to work with by responding...

"Kojak… New York… Ang Lee…"

It's doubtful that Diesel is actually confirming the Life of Pi director, just stating that Lee is his top choice for Kojak. Then again, the fact that he's being so specific could mean that a deal is in the works. "Who loves ya, baby"?
