Escape From New York inspireras av Batman: Arkham City
Remake-uppdatering
Förra året fick producenten Joel Silvers bolag filmrättigheterna till John Carpenters Escape From New York (sci fi-action från 1981) och planen är nu att göra en remake, och utveckla det till en trilogi. Det är fortfarande väldigt tidigt i processen, men i en intervju med Collider gav Silver en uppdatering om planerna för filmerna och hur de delvis inspireras av tv-spelet Batman: Arkham City:
“There was a videogame that came out a few years ago called Arkham City, which shows how Gotham became this walled prison. And they never deal with that in the story of Escape From New York, so part of our idea was to see how the city became this walled prison and how the Snake Plissken character was a hero and how he became not looked at as a hero. And then, in the middle of the story, would be the movie that we previously saw about the President’s daughter goes down, and he has to go in and get her. And then they did a sequel, Escape from L.A., but I would like to then find a way to have New York go back to a place that we’d like to see what it is today.”
Silver har med andra ord stora planer. Välkomnar ni en remake?
