What if Kenneth Branagh did Macbeth?
In 2000 Branagh projected with Intermedia to produce Love’s Labour’s Lost, Macbeth, and As You Like It. But, as Mark Thornton Burnett puts it, “ as a result of Love’s Labour’s Lost’s performance, Macbeth, at one time slated as being the next film in Branagh’s trilogy, was put on hold, although one might also suggest that the concept of a ‘Scottish play’ set in the corridors of a ‘media empire’ on ‘Wall Street’ had already been sapped and superseded by Michael Almereyda’s deployment of a similarly global locale and idea in Hamlet (2000).”
