The Hollywood Reporter brings word that a Starship Troopers reboot is in development at Columbia Pictures and writers Mark Swift and Damian Shannon have been hired to pen the script.
Shannon and Swift are most well known for writing the 2003 hit Freddy vs. Jason and the 2009 reboot of Friday the 13th.
A reboot was previously in development with Thor and X-Men: First Class screenwriters Ashley Edward Miller and Zack Stentz, though that version never materialized.
The outlet reports that they will be going back to the original basis for the film, the 1959 novel by Robert A. Heinlein.
