Law to follow in Caine's footsteps

Jude Law is following in the career footsteps of his fellow Londoner Michael Caine.

After signing to star in a remake of Sleuth, in which Caine appeared in 1972, Law is now negotiating with Paramount Pictures to topline a remake of the 1966 romantic comedy Alfie, which won Caine an Oscar nomination, reports Daily Variety.
