Blood Type

Director Phillip Noyce will develop a remake of the 1935 Errol Flynn pirate acrtion classic Captain Blood reports Variety.

Flynn starred as a doctor wrongly sentenced to slavery in the Caribbean, where he and his comrades become avenging pirates.

Flynn is the ultimate pirate and is going to be a hard act to follow...Casting is key.

The potential U.K./Australian co-production will most likely be helmed by Noyce who's going to have to find a way to balance Blood with two other thrillers - "28th Amendment" and most likely "Edwin A. Salt".
