BOB MARLEY: ONE LOVE Featurette

War Games Reboot Gets a New Writer and Director

See who's involved in the newest spin on the 80's classic.
One year before 1984's The Terminator, a little cautionary film called War Games arrived, ushering in a new wave of movies featuring computers going serious awry. The original starred Matthew Broderick and Ally Sheedy as teenagers who stumble across a computer that's in charge of launching ICBM's during a nuclear war. The film was a commercial success, but a reboot has been a long time coming.

Early reports saw Director Seth Gordon was originally chosen to head the reboot, but The Wrap now reports that MGM has hired Dean Israelite. Additionally, they've announced Arash Amel will write the script.

With so many directors promising to bring this project back to life over the years, it would seem like a no-brainer. However, we all know how long some of these take before the right mix of people come together. MGM has done several reboots now, including Carrie, Red Dawn, and RoboCop, each with varying levels of success. We'll have to see if this newest mix of creative talent can get what has to be the strongest premise of the above films moving in the right direction.
