October 31, 2008 - Forbidden Planet / Straczynski now writing
Scooped on Sunday, November 2, 2008
Warner Bros. is the latest movie studio to try and find a way to crack an updated version of Forbidden Planet. After picking up the property earlier this year the house that Bugs Bunny built has hired J. Michael Straczynski to write a new screenplay. The creator of the 1990s sci-fi TV series Babylon 5, Straczynski is getting some attention for penning the screenplay for Clint Eastwood's now-in-theaters Changeling. He is also working on a script for Universal based on the Lensman series of books and has penned an adaptation of the zombie apocalypse novel World War Z for WB.
Joel Silver (Speed Racer, The Matrix, Lethal Weapon) is producing.
