StudioCanal and The Picture Companys Alex Heineman and Andrew Rona will produce a remake of Nicolas Roegs monstrously unsettling 1973 classic, Dont Look Now.
Newly released on Criterion Blu, Dont Look Now stars Donald Sutherland and Julie Christie in the tale of grieving parents in Venice who believe their dead daughter is trying to contact them. The film is widely regarded as a landmark in horror, thanks to Roeg and editor Graeme Cliffords command of unease, the score from Pino Donaggio and its horrifying end. The film was based on a short story from Daphne Du Mauriers (Rebecca) collection, Not After Midnight.
THR reports news of the remake, which is currently in development and seeking a studio home. No writer is on board.
