TopPremise
When a follow-up mission is sent to a remote planet to learn the fate of a colony, the crew discovers two survivors as well as a mysterious force that begins to attack them.
TopWhat We Think
The 1956 Forbidden Planet film is a sci-fi classic that introduced audiences to Robby the Robot using a retooled version of William Shakespeare's The Tempest. We would love to see a remake that pays homage to all things great about the original movie while also updates the story in a manner more realistic to today's audience, in a way similar to how the 1950s The Thing From Another World or the first version of The Fly were remade into the now-classic updates released in the 1980s. That said, we're not in a rush to see a new Forbidden Planet unless it gets done right.
