'Heat' Was Based on Michael Mann's Underrated TV Movie From 1989

Starring Robert De Niro and Al Pacino in the opposite big-screen roles of professional thief Neil McCauley and LAPD lieutenant Vincent Hanna, Heatwas a 1995 winter blockbuster hit. The surprisingly emotional heist stole the critics, audiences and the box office away, with The Guardian actually calling the movie one of the greatest crime films of all time. Less than a year ago, director, writer and producer of Heat, Michael Mann, said in an interview with Deadline that the sequel script is actually close to completion. It’s going to be based on the novel, which was released in 2022. But before anybody starts gearing up for Mann’s future theatrical works, we need to take a step back in time.
