For those unfamiliar, NIGHT OF THE HUNTER was based on a novel that was *MUCH DARKER* than the 1950s would allow. Very excited about this project and thrilled we can finally talk about it.
Remaking Night of The Hunter is really just half a step short of announcing Citizen Kane 2: Rosebud's Revenge.
@Massawyrm Oooo I’ve read that one, it is much much darker lol
@Massawyrm My Mom saw this in theaters with her brother when they were very little, and to this day she can’t watch it again because of Mitchum’s performance lol. Exciting to have a new version of it, especially with you and Scott involved :-)
@Massawyrm OMG! Written by a fellow West Virginian. I'm looking so forward to this.
@Massawyrm One has to wonder if Bradley Cooper has something to do with this ridiculous remake. It seems to be his preferred Era, which of course means another flop.
@Massawyrm My ass is in a seat on day one!!!! Night of the Hunter was one of my dad’s favorite movies! I’ve loved it since I was a kid!
@Massawyrm This is excellent news.... Very curious to see who's going to play Harry Powell...
@Massawyrm Well, this answers my question on your other tweet 😂 can't wait to see how you guys do this ❤️🖤
@Massawyrm I can’t wait to see what y’all will do with Davis Grubb’s novel. Excited to see the casting. Giddy with excitement.
