Oliver Platt is to star in the one of the two lead male roles in the remake of the 1978 comedy
Who is Killing the Great Chefs?, according to Variety.
Gold told Daily Variety that it made perfect sense to have the film take place in Las Vegas, where many of the world's greatest chefs, including the likes of Todd English, Nobu Matsuhisa, Michael Mina and Joachim Splichal, have flocked.
In the updated version, Platt will play a food critic who comes to Vegas to check out the action, reprising the role played by Robert Morley in the original. But when a chef is found murdered in the same way his signature dish is prepared, the critic becomes a suspect.
