Ahoy, squirts! Quint here. Yes, it appears David Fincher and Andrew Kevin Walker are reteaming. No, it's not for 8ight, though that would be pretty damn ridiculous-awesome.
Fincher is attached to direct and Walker to write a remake of THE REINCARNATION OF PETER PROUD, which was a novel that was adapted in the '70s by the book's author Max Ehrlich for director J. Lee Thompson (Cape Fear, The Guns of Navarone, Happy Birthday To Me). So says THR's Heat Vision blog.
It's a fairly twisted story about a professor that starts to experience visions of a previous incarnation... which leads to some fairly John Phillipsy craziness.
So, yeah... right up their alley. Again, I'd love to see something original from this collaboration, but at the end of the day I just want a good movie.
Fincher is supposed to attack this project after THE SOCIAL NETWORK which is just about to lens.
