Warner Brothers moving forward with Gremlins reboot; Seth Grahame-Smith to produce

Last Updated on August 2, 2021

Here’s some news to make you choke on your coffee this morning. According to Bloody Disgusting, DARK SHADOWS/ABRAHAM LINCOLN: VAMPIRE HUNTER writer Seth Grahame-Smith will be producing a third GREMLINS picture for Warner Brothers, alongside David Katzenberg, moving ahead with a remake of Amblin’s 1984 GREMLINS instead of the long gestured sequel.

There is no word on who will be writing and directing this remake, but if this bit of hellish news holds true then I wouldn’t be surprised if Grahame-Smith pulls double-duty and takes a crack at writing the screenplay as well as producing.

In an interview with Crave last year, producer Frank Marshall spoke out about a possible GREMLINS reboot, stating…

No, I don’t think so. I think by now we have something in our contracts, or at least Amblin does, where it can’t be remade without Steven [Spielberg]’s permission.”

No word on whether or not Spielberg has signed off on anything as of yet.

We’ll keep you updated on news regarding a GREMLINS reboot as we hear it.
