‘Total Recall’ Remake Gets a Director
Total Recall is being re-imagined and re-made, now there’s a director set to make it.
Sony announced today that Len Wiseman is in final negotiations to direct Total Recall.(Funny how, two days ago, Wiseman’s agency ICM denied anything substantive was going on…) Doug Belgrad and Matt Tolmach, the presidents of Columbia Pictures, said the film will be a new, contemporized adaptation of Total Recall, which was based on the story, “We Can Remember It for You Wholesale” by Philip K. Dick. Kurt Wimmer is writing the screenplay. Neal H. Moritz will produce through his Original Film banner. Toby Jaffe will oversee production on behalf of Original Film. Columbia Pictures secured the rights to Total Recall from Miramax.
Strange that they are remaking this, but not surprising. I wonder who’s going to be the replacement for Arnold? Who would you choose?
