The Not-So-Magnificent-Seven

Please God say it ain't so:

From Cinema Retro:

Irvine Welsh, the author of Trainspotting, has another unique story that's being developed for a film. The Magnificent Eleven is a contemporary British football spoof of the classic 1960 western The Magnificent Seven, which itself was a remake of Seven Samurai. The new film will deal with an amateur football team, a Tandoori restaurant and a gang of thugs. Even more intriguingly, it's rumored Robert Vaughn will be approached to appear in the film. Vaughn is the last surviving member of the actors who comprised The Magnificent Seven.
