An American Werewolf In London Remake In The Works?

A remake of ‘An American Werewolf in London’ may be happening.

According to filmmaker Max Landis, there’s only one of his dad’s films that he would want to remake… and some folks have already joined the dots.

“There’s only one of my dad’s movies I’d ever be willing to try to remake,” said Max Landis via Twitter. “And I’m already doing it.”

But could he be talking about ‘An American Werewolf in London’?

The folks at Bloody Disgusting first put this all together, claiming that Max Landis will remake ‘An American Werewolf in London’.

And the evidence is certainly compelling.

Going back a few months, Max Landis has tweeted a number of cryptic tweets concerning his upcoming projects… as well as one not-so-cryptic tweet which suggests that ‘An American Werewolf in London’ could even see him step behind the camera.

“There’s a chance, when the moon is full, I might again transform from write to director,” he said via Twitter. “But it’s just a chance.”

But it seems that Landis has spotted the rumours… and is denying everything.

“I categorically deny any rumors about upcoming projects printed today,” he said.

Does this mean it won’t happen?

Not necessarily… after all, if there is a remake of ‘An American Werewolf in London’ in the works, the studio likely wants to keep it under their hats until they’re at a point where further details can be given.

Or it may not be happening at all.

Either way, it’s an interesting idea. After all, with Hollywood pilfering its back catalogue with increasing regularity, what better way to remake a classic than getting the original writer and director’s son to create it?

Whether or not this happens remains to be seen.

But we’ll be keeping a keen eye on it.
