Report: Producer David Kirschner Says More Terrifying ‘Child’s Play’ Remake in Works

HollywoodChicago.com cohort Alex Billington at FirstShowing.net reports that “while talking with producer David Kirschner this weekend [about] the upcoming John Cusack film ‘Martian Child,’” he revealed that a remake of the first ‘Child’s Play’ is in the works”.


Kirschner says this is not a sequel. Instead, it’s a complete remake of the original. While the project hasn’t yet been given the greenlight and a director isn’t yet attached, Kirschner says it’s being written now by “Child’s Play” screenwriter Don Mancini.

Kirschner, who is the producer behind all five of the currently released “Child’s Play” films, promises a much “more terrifying” movie this time around. Read more about this report here.
