DUNE Reboot Movie Update
We have a quick little update on the new Dune reboot movie that is currently being developed. If you have not heard abou this yet Producer Kevin Misher (The Scorion King, The Rundown, Fighting) and Actor/Director Peter Berg (The Rundown, Hancock) have teamed up again to make another movie based on the original source matertial. Misher recently did an interview with io9 in which he say's that Dune is one of his favorite books of all time. When asked about where they are in the process he replies:
We're working on the script right now. We're going to turn it in shortly. The script is coming in, we're hoping to get a green light shortly.
Misher sounds pretty confident that this is going to happen, and it most likely will so I hope your ready to see a new Dune film directed by Peter Berg. I have no idea what to expect from these guys for this movie. Kevin Misher has taken some of his films in the wrong direction. I just hope this doesn't end up being a cheap-ass looking adaptation. Peter Berg is still a fairly new director and I thought 'Hancock' sucked. So chance sare this movie wont be a brilliant adaptation. I hope it turns out to be one but from the track record of the talent involved we have an idea of how it will end up. Unless they cast Christian Bale in the movie, that seems to make everything better these days.
Are you ready for a new Dune movie? I know I am but I'm not sure about the talent.
