Hamlet 2.0

So I decided Shakespeare's Hamlet is getting a bit, eh, outdated. So lets modernize it. Switch it up. Hamlet is now getting a makeover, and some makeup to hide those wrinkles.
Old Hamlet is a major druglord, leader of the LA cartel Denmark, on the brink of war with an opposing cartel, the Fortinbras. Old Hamlet is killed by his brother  "Clowdy"Claudius, who's been brewing with jealousy for a while. Claudius takes over the cartel and pacifies the "beef" with the Fortinbras. Old Hamlet's son, "Young Hamma" Hamlet, has been out of the picture away at art school. Young Hamma still hasn't taken after his father's ways, although temptation has tickled his thoughts.
