It’s been five years since Tim Burton’s last movie, the live-action Dumbo remake, came out (an subsequently led to him not wanting to work with Disney again), but thankfully he’s making his big cinematic return for the 2024 release schedule. His Beetlejuice sequel arrives in the fall, and thanks to the new poster, we now know it’s officially titled Beetlejuice Beetlejuice. Now, ahead of that flick’s arrival, it’s been revealed that Burton will be remaking a sci-fi classic as his next movie.
Continuing his run at Warner Bros. Pictures, Burton has been tapped by the studio to direct a remake of 1958’s Attack of the 50 Foot Woman. Writer Gillian Flynn of Sharp Objects, Utopia, Gone Girl and Widows fame is penning the script. Per Deadline, Burton will also produce the remake alongside Andrew Mittman and Tommy Harper, and Kai Dolbashian is executive producing.
