Breck Eisner, director of The Crazies remake has been talking about the status of his Flash Gordon Reboot…

“‘Flash Gordon’ is a project I’ve been passionate about for years and that I’ve been pursuing for years. I love sci-fi. I absolutely am obssessed with sci-fi. The ‘Flash Gordon’ that we’re currently writing… we’re turning in the script in a month or so. Maybe two months.”

For those of you who shudder when you think of the 1980’s Flash Gordon (I actually like that version) don’t worry; Eisner’s take on Flash Gordon will be completely different…

“It’s not in any way a remake of any version that’s been done before. It’s not going to be the camp of the ’80s. It’s not going back to the serials. We’re looking at the original Alex Raymond strips and treating those as if… those strips were drawn and written in the ’30s and the ’40s, and that audience saw them much differently than this post space-age audience.”

Sounds promising eh?
