Two words....WOLFMAN REBOOTED?? Yup, you read that correctly. According to Moviehole.com, all talks of a sequel to the Benicio del Toro movie have finally come to a halt. Instead, Universal has given the green light for the movie to undergo a complete rewrite.
Michael Tabb apparently had already wrote a script for the movie, but according to the webte, Tabb's script was axed and is now in the process of being rewritten and reworked to be more of an original film, rather then a sequel. The movie is said to be closer to the clasc Universal monster movie series. A working title thats been pitched for the movie is Werewolf.
Filming is expected to begin this fall, and a director is presently being sought. Once a director is chosen, casting will begin shortly thereafter.
At this particular time, I'm not sure if it's a good decion to choose a reboot over a sequel. I guess we'll just have to wait and see.
