‘Fright Night’ Redo Finds Its Paranoid Neighbor
Want more big breaking news? You got it! DreamWorks in in final talks with Anton Yelchin to topline their remake of Tom Holland’s cult 1985 vampire film Fright Night. Craig Gillespie is helming the new version, which sticks to the concept of a teen being convinced that his new neighbor is a vampire, although no one will believe him. The new iteration, written by Marti Noxon, keeps the character’s name the same as in the original: Charley Brewster. William Ragsdale, now seen on FX’s “Justified,” originated the role. Yelchin was most recently seen in Terminator Salvation and Star Trek. What do you guys think of the casting?
