HOLLYWOOD, Feb. 16 (UPI) -- U.S. film star Jamie Foxx is excited about working with Colin Farrell on a big-screen version of "Miami Vice."

The Oscar-nominated star of "Ray" says he and Irishman Farrell hit it off in meetings with director Michael Mann, World Entertainment News Network reported Wednesday.

"The chemistry between us is already there, like it was with me and Tom Cruise in Collateral, so making this movie is going to be a total blast," said Foxx. "And it's going to redefine cool. You're going to see our Crockett and Tubbs suits and be like, 'I want those.'"

The remake of the hit television series is expected to be released next year.
