Kicking Sand

The site Pajiba reports that Peter Berg is no long working on that Dune remake



The pic has been in development for several years, with a 175 page adapted screenmplay by Joshua Zetumer ready to go

Berg was attached earlier this Summer and spoke about the project as recently as last month.

Kevin Misher is still attached to produce.

District 9's Neill Blomkamp and Neil Marshall have been mentioned as potential replacements, though neither has handled a project of this scale before (budgeted at $175 million). It's all up in the air right now. Berg's departure is not a shock though--considering that it was put on the back burner...
