Edgar Wright to reboot ‘The Night Stalker’ with Jonny Depp


Interesting news on the reboot front.

Deadline reports that Disney has tapped Edgar Wright to direct a reboot of the TV series, The Night Stalker, as a movie. And, Disney is looking to Johnny Depp to play the hero, Carl Kolchak.

I'm actually cool with this. They tried to reboot the series a few years ago. While the series was cute, the viewers weren't there. But I believe Edgar will do this project justice, so I approve of this reboot.

Didn't someone already try to re-boot this as a TV series a few years ago? And didn't it fail?
