This time around, Sleight director J.D. Dillard is taking on the story of a man who Kafkas himself into a giant bug.
Deadline reports that Dillard, whose directorial debut Sleight was a hit at last year’s Sundance Film Festival, is in talks to direct and co-write the remake of The Fly for Fox.
Maybe, with luck and plenty of gross insect makeup, Dillard and Theurer could pull off the same thing.
The Fly, first made popular by Vincent Price and Kurt Neumann in 1958, and revamped in 1986 by David Cronenberg and Jeff Goldblum, is the latest to get an update.
