The "Expendables 3" filmmaker signed up to tackle the revamp last year, with Taylor Kitsch and Frank Grillo allegedly attached to star, but the movie never moved into production, reported Screen Rant.
Kitsch is reportedly no longer involved in the movie, and now reports suggest Hughes has also quit "The Raid", while bosses at distributor Screen Gems have departed the project, too.
The original 2012 release focused on members of an elite police task force who are pitted against the city's most dangerous villains.
