John Moore ("Behind Enemy Lines", "Flight of the Phoenix") has been set by 20th Century Fox to helm a remake of the 1976 horror classic "The Omen" about the arrival of the Antichrist in the home of an unsuspecting family says Variety.
Richard Donner directed the original, which starred Gregory Peck as an ambassador whose dark secret --allowing a baby to be substituted for the one his wife (Lee Remick) lost in childbirth -- comes back to haunt him when the hellish prodigal son begins to hit his evil stride.
Dan McDermott is writing a script that contemporizes the tale. Project is on a fast track, as the studio has set a tentative October 3rd start date.
Thanks to 'Wilcox'.
