The Bad Guys Rewrite

I'm having trouble rewriting The Bad Guys, mainly just act 2 when the gang goes to be reformed at Marmalade's place. I was thinking of having The Bad Guys still do heists but on them we see each character get brief flashbacks to their past. I just don't know how to go about writing the scenes for it. I plan on the rewrite to still be close to the movie just with improvements since we don't get an explanation as to why these characters feel certain things and how they even got into crime or met each other.

I had to go to the wiki for the books to find out about Wolf's abusive father and Snake being beaten with a rake. These are traumatic but defining moments for the characters that should've been implemented or some kind of backstory to explain the gang's motivations. I just feel disconnected from the characters struggles since it's hardly explored. But what's your opinion and if you agree how would you fix it?
