Warner Bros Now Developing Another Take on 'The Fugitive' Movie

The Fugitive

Another day, another remake. Or this time a reboot. Or whatever the heck it will be. Deadline is reporting that Warner Bros is now in development on a new version of The Fugitive, working with producers Arnold and Anne Kopelson who helped make the first one. The Fugitive movie every knows, the one with Harrison Ford and Tommy Lee Jones from 1993, was actually adapted from a TV series from the 1960s. The report mentions it'll be a movie, with Christina Hodson (The Eden Project, Shut In) writing the script, but that's about it as details are sparse on what exactly it is beyond a new take. Maybe they want Harrison Ford back?

Here's some of the best tweets collected regarding the news today - the funniest ones are at the bottom:

Directed by Andrew Davis, The Fugitive was a huge hit for Warner Bros back in 1993, earning $368 million worldwide not to mention seven Oscar nominations (and one win!) including Best Picture. And it brought us the action sequel U.S. Marshals, which is why that joke above is so good. "Kopelson said this would be his 30th film and a return to Warner Bros, where he had his greatest run of success while a tenured producer on the lot." No word on anything else yet, regarding whether Harrison Ford or Tommy Lee Jones will return, nothing except that Arnold and Anne Kopelson are returning to produce and Christina Hodson is writing. We'll have to keep an eye out for updates, but this is one of those projects that we hope goes away quietly.
