Warner Bros. and DC Films have scrapped development Luca Guadagnino's planned Sgt. Rock movie that was to star Colin Farrell.

It was also in the throes of casting, trying to line up actors who would play the men of Easy Company, the combat unit fighting Nazi forces in Europe. Sources say Mike Faist, who starred in Guadagnino’s Challengers, was lined up for a role. A part of a female French resistance fighter had also been set, per sources.

Colin Farrell was set to star in the title role and the film was in pre-production and in the process of casting.
