…became Platinum Dunes’ Satan project
No, it wasn’t divine intervention that cut down Platinum Dunes’ remake of Rosemary’s Baby. Producer Brad Fuller explains to Collider, “We went down that road and we even talked to the best writers in town and it feels like it might not be do-able. We couldn’t come up with something where it felt like it was relevant and we could add something to it other than what it was so we’re now not going to be doing that film.”
Sources tell us one of the writers called in was Scott Kosar, a Platinum Dunes vet with the Texas Chainsaw Massacre and The Amityville Horror remakes under his belt. He pitched them a Baby redo that veered off familiar ground, so, Kosar fashioned his story into an entirely new tale about Satan. This one, in fact.
Oh, and their Near Dark redo is dead, too. It’s been so long since there’s been an update on that, you probably figured it was dead already.
