Tron Legacy director Joseph Kosinski producer Sean Bailey and screenwriter Travis Beacham (Clash of the Titans) are planning a remake/reboot of Disney 1979 sci-fi epic "The Black Hole" according to the Heat Vision Blog.
The original followed a group of space explorers aboard the USS Palomino who come across a lost ship, the USS Cygnus, hovering outside a black hole. Inside the Cygnus, the explorers meet a scientist, commanding an army of faceless robots, who explains his crew deserted him as he planned to go through the black hole. The explorers soon discover that the robots are the remnants of the former crew and that the scientist has no intention of letting them leave.
'Hole' was at the time the company's first PG-rated production and the most expensive film the studio ever produced at $26 million.
The trade points out, that the new "Hole" is one of the first projects undertaken by new Mouse House chief Rich Ross who put a 20000 Leagues Under the Sea redo on hold last month.
The new film will include the red robot Maximilian and be much more grounded in real science about black holes. Other details are being kept secret.
