Why doesn't the film industry stop not lazily polishing old gems and mine for new ones. The espionage genre suffers much from the lazy risk averse philosophy of polishing old gems such as Bond, Palmer, Smiley, Bond, Palmer, Smiley, Bond and Bridges again!
A good example of such a new gem in the espionage genre is Beyond Enkription, the first spy thriller in The Burlington Files series. The real life story would make for a stunning TV series or films and being based on fact, it would be more difficult for actors and TV producers to deliver a lazy production.
Why choose The Burlington Files when some critics have likened its protagonist to a "posh and sophisticated Harry Palmer"? Maybe it has a touch of Michael Caine magic but on another positive note it is indisputably anti-Bond rather than merely Deightonesque. Film producers should check out this enigmatic and elusive thriller. As it's not yet a remake it may have eluded them to date.
