According to Writer/Director Richard Kelly's (Donnie Darko) MySpace blog, casting, budgeting and scheduling for The Box is finally underway! The film is an adaptation of a Richard Matheson story called Button Button, also made into a twilight zone episode back in the 60's on the original show. The story will figure a bickering couple that comes into possession of a box that gives money each time it's button is pressed. The only catch is that a person dies every time they get more money.
You might want to correct this article as this story was never adapted in the original Twilight Zone series but rather in the 1980s revival. The story was aired in 1986 in an episode along with the "Profile in Silver" Kennedy time travel story and featured Mare Winningham.
