Didn't know that, I just go by what IMDb say, according to them the Bruce Willis one is still set for release in December of this year. Apparently Sylvester Stallone was supposed to do it, but he pulled out at the last minute with Bruce then taking the lead role.

stallone wanted to turn the lead into a gun hating cop

the complete opposite

In 2006, Sylvester Stallone announced that he would be directing and starring in a remake of Death Wish. Stallone stated, "Instead of the Charles Bronson character being an architect, my version would have him as a very good cop who had incredible success without ever using his gun. So when the attack on his family happens, he%u2019s really thrown into a moral dilemma in proceeding to carry out his revenge."[22][23] On December 20, 2006, however, Stallone officially announced that he will not be doing the Death Wish remake.[22]

In late January 2012, The Hollywood Reporter stated that a remake was confirmed and would be written and directed by Joe Carnahan.[24] Carnahan left the film in 2013 and director Gerardo Naranjo was then attached to the project.[citation needed] This version also never came into fruition.

In March 2016, Paramount and MGM announced that Aharon Keshales & Navot Papushado will direct the remake, with Bruce Willis starring.[25] In May, Keshales and Papushado quit the project after the studio failed to allow their script rewrites. In June, Eli Roth signed on to direct.[26]

Fair enough, I'm not going to put much hope into the movie after reading that if it does get completed chances are it's going to be bad.
