This just in-
you know that thing we all judge Hollywood for about there being no new ideas? What if we told you one major studio is looking to reboot a fairly high-profile series, merely 6 years after it ended? Okay sure, this isn’t as bad as the “Resident Evil” reboot timeline, but it ain’t great.
“The Maze Runner” is reportedly being eyed for a hard reboot, with Jack Paglen penning the script.
There really isn’t much to go on yet, but 20th Century Studios seems keen to do this.
The original film trilogy took its cues from James Dashner’s “The Maze Runner” books. It starred Dylan O’Brien (“Teen Wolf,”), and were directed by Wes Ball (“Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes“). We’ll let you know what we hear about this and other news.
Mary Anne Butler
Mary Anne Butler (Mab) has been part of the fast-paced world of journalism since she was 15, getting her start in album reviews and live concert coverage for a nationally published (print) music magazine. She eventually transitioned to online media, writing for such sites as UGO/IGN, ComicsOnline, Geek Magazine, Ace of Geeks, Aggressive Comix (where she is still Editor-in-Chief), Bleeding Cool (where she was News Editor), and now Nerdbot as Editor-In-Chief. Over the past 10 years, she’s built a reputation at conventions across the globe as a cosplayer (occasionally), photographer (constantly), panelist and moderator (mostly), and reporter (always). Interviews, reviews, observations, breaking news, and objective reporting are the name of the game for the founder of Harkonnen Knife Fight, a Dune-themed band with an international presence. Though she be but little, she is fierce.
