If you were to come up with a list of bona fide classics that should be the last thrown into the remake machine, we’re fairly certain that Nic Roeg’s atmospheric 1973 chiller Don’t Look Now would be near the top. Yet that isn’t stopping StudioCanal, which has a plan to craft a new version.
Yes, despite the predictable wave of negativity sure to overload servers like a technological tsunami, producers Andrew Rona and Alex Heineman of The Motion Picture Company are setting the gears in motion for what they hope will be a fresh take. They’re looking for some studio backing before tracking down a writer.
Roeg’s eerie, brilliant thriller saw Donald Sutherland and Julie Christie as a couple trying to get over the death of their young daughter. On a trip to Venice, they find messages from the afterlife, but don’t realise the danger they’re in. Any new film is going to have to struggle to match up to a piece of work that is full of sizzling sexuality and real terror. Good luck with that…
