An American Werewolf In London
John Landis , the author / manager ofAn American Werewolf In London , tried to advise his son Max not to script the forthcoming remake . The original movie is considered a classic in the repugnance / drollery genre , handle to equilibrate terrifying sequence with genuinely funny moments . It also won an Oscar for Rick Baker ’s makeup effects , which guard up to this day .
babble ofAn American Werewolf In Londonremake has been be adrift around since 2009 , but it was only whenMax Landis signed onin 2016 that the projection seemed to move forward . Max Landis himself is a well - hump film writer , producer and director and is probably best known for hisChroniclescreenplay . Having Landis reinvent a construct his father John originate drive citizenry curious about the projection , though lover of the original remain sceptical .
deplorably for Max that includes his father too , who revealed during an audience withCollider(to discussThriller 3D ) that he attempt to talk his son out of taking the task :
Truthfully , I ’ve not seen his script . I advised him not to do it . I think he ’s putting himself in a defective position . My Logos is vivid , he really is , and he wants to do it . So what am I run to say ? No ? I know it wo n’t be as bad as An American Werewolf In Paris , which was s**t . So , I do n’t know . He ’s a great writer .
During his last update on the undertaking , Max Landis reveal the script is still being written and that he plan to direct the remaking himself . He ’ll present an acclivitous struggle to top the balance of humor and repulsion that the original picture root for off so beautifully . It ’s graspable his father advised against it , because in any comparison between the original and this raw take , the remake is unlikely to come out on top . The transmutation scene alone is iconic and it ’s doubtful a CGI alternative would get along close to meet its impact . But like John Landis said , at the very least the remake should be better than the sequel .
SinceAn American Werewolf In Londonis a Universal property , there have been rumbling the new take could have crosstie to theDark Universe . While Landis has acknowledge this link , he has n’t affirm if this is the plan - and considering the disappointing critical performance ofThe Mummy , Universal may not be corking on linking the film anymore .
