Nicolas Roeg’s horror classic Don’t Look Now is one of those movies that should never be remade, but StudioCanal is making one anyway with the producers of Liam Neeson’s Non-Stop.
The Picture Company’s Andrew Rona and Alex Heineman are producing the film for StudioCanal, reports The Hollywood Reporter. The duo also produced Non-Stop and are working on Nottingham and Hood at Disney.
StudioCanal hasn’t found a writer yet and are also looking for a major studio to co-produce it. THR reports that there are already some studios interested.
Whoever ends up making the film will have a huge challenge ahead because the 1973 film is one of the best horror films of the 1970s. Donald Sutherland and Julie Christie starred as a couple whose daughter recently died. They travel to Venice, where a nun claims that she has heard from their daughter and warns them that they are in danger.
The film is also notable for a graphic sex scene between Sutherland and Christie that caused speculation at the time that the actors may have actually been having sex, notes The Independent.
The story was based on a Daphne Du Maurier (Rebecca, The Birds) short story.
