Heat Vision reports that "Journey 2: The Mysterious Island" writing duo Brian Gunn and Mark Gunn will script the Timecop remake for Universal Pictures.
Based on the Dark Horse Comics title, created by Mark Verheiden and Mike Richardson--story takes place in a world where time travel is possible and the police regulate the use of it.
The 1994 Peter Hyams’ film starred Jean-Claude Van Damme as an officer who tries to go back in time to save his wife from being killed as part of a conspiracy. Ron Silver played the bad guy. Mia Sara co-starred as Jcvd’s wife, and a pre-”ER” Gloria Reuben played his partner.
The remake is likely going to be more of a reboot, taking the premise and
re-imagining the concept so it could serve as a potential franchise
launcher. We can also expect the film to be a more "gritty and grounded police
story" with the sci-fi elements in the background rather than upfront.
Marc Shmuger and Tom McNulty will produce.
