Newest Hollywood rumour

[winter]

According to today's Dziennik, Michael Bay (Pearl Harbour, Armageddon, The Rock) is preparing to remake Hitcher. As in, the quiet Rutger Hauer serial killer gem that manages to make Rutger terrifying and fascinating and oh-so-heartbreaking at once, with additional UST with everyone around including the boy protagonist. And apparently Sean Bean is attached to the project. As in, Sean Bean playing John Ryder.

I just squeed out loud. I also have a sudden urge to rewatch my Hitcher DVD, much as it makes my skin crawl.

(The director attached only seems to have done videos so far. Here's hoping he doesn't screw it up.)
