Warner Brothers Prepping New Twilight Zone Film
The last film that was made of the classic 60’s TV show, The Twilight Zone, was made by Warner Brothers in 1983. That one was a series of short, self-contained film written, directed, and produced by Steven Spielberg and John Landis, along with a few other directors. At least one of those was a revision of an old Twilight Zone episode, but others were new, more “in the spirit” of the Twilight Zone.
Now WB is planning to do it again, but instead of Landis and Spielberg, it’s Ravich and DiCaprio. Rand Ravich is a multitalented director and producer who has been hired by Leonardo Di Caprio’s Appian Way production corporation to screen-write the new film.
Sources say that this film will be different from the 1983 version of the Twilight Zone. Instead of a collection of episodes, like the old TV show, DiCaprio and Ravich plan for this movie to be a single, long-playing narrative. DiCaprio is a life-long Twilight Zone fan and has apparently been looking to start this project for a long time.
