Platinum Dunes' Bradley Fuller:
"We went down that road and we even talked to the best writers in town and it feels like it might not be do-able. We couldn’t’ come up with something where it felt like it was relevant and we could add something to it other than what it was so we’re now not going to be doing that film."
What Fuller probably means is the writers couldn't come up with as clever and different enough of an ending to make it seem fresh and new--and worth spending all that dough.
This marks the 2nd film this month that the company decided not to remake a movie . An updated version of"Near Dark" was done in by the success of Twilight ".
Fear not. The company made its name remaking horror classics is still moving forward with plans for their "A Nightmare on Elm Street" retread, while their redo of "Friday the 13th " opens in February.
