Zoning Commission

Leonardo DiCaprio wants to bring the ultimate sci-fi anthology series "The Twilight Zone" back to the big screen...

The Hollywood Reporter says that DiCaprio’s production company Appian Way and Warner Bros.. have been soliciting pitches and scripts for features based on the show, aiming for some top-shelf talent to take on the monumental challenge.

Warners owns the rights to the episodes that were written by creator Rod Serling, which is quite a large number of them,-and are hoping to make one feature-length movie based on one or several of these stories.

Of course this has been tried once before in 1983 with mixed results....It's gonna be tricky...

Don't forget the episode Death Ship is already on target for the cineplex from Summit Entertainment...
