A remake of LOGAN'S RUN has been in the works since the mid-1990s with various actors, directors and screenwriters attached to the sci-fi project over the years, including (most recently) Ryan Gosling and his DRIVE and ONLY GOD FORGIVES director Nicolas Winding Refn.
Last we knew Warner Bros. had hired BioShock creator Ken Levine to write the script, but now Tracking Board is reporting that the studio is "hunting down a fresh writer to develop the film for a female lead."
The site doesn't have any additional details on the remake, but having a female lead more than likely won't change the story for the film. It could bug some fans of the William F. Nolan and George Clayton Johnson novel and the original 1976 movie, but if the project actually moves forward (and at this point that's a huge if), I will have no problem with a female Logan.
Who do you want to play Logan in the remake? Emma Stone? Anne Hathaway? Sound off below with your suggestions!
