According to The Sun, the RocknRolla director has expressed an interest in making a musical with actor Jason Statham.
A source said: "Guy has had a lot of meetings with top studio bosses about other projects but the Guys And Dolls idea really tickled him.
"He is torn between keeping the script true to the original in New York and taking it to familiar surroundings in London."
Ritchie is said to be looking for actors to take the roles of Sky Masterson and Nathan Detroit, originally played by Marlon Brando and Frank Sinatra in the 1955 film adaptation of the stage show.
