The Collider:
As producers have settled on the star for their futuristic take on the Zorro character, Zorro Reborn, they’re now looking to nail down a director. Gael Garcia Bernal recently emerged as the likely star in the reimagining, which finds Zorro in a post-apocalyptic wasteland “bent on getting revenge against an evil tyrant and his gang of mercenaries.” Variety reports that Peruvian helmer Ricardo de Montreuil is now a contender to direct the update, as he’s set to direct a screen test for Bernal. Montreuil is best known for helming the short film The Raven, which Universal acquired the rights to back in 2010. The Chronicle-esque sci-fi thriller short is set in an alternate and futuristic Los Angeles and is actually pretty impressive. Hit the jump for more and to watch Montreuil’s short film The Raven.
With the new The Crow remake coming soon, we take a look back at the 30-year-old cult classic original–and where the stars are now.
Kaam Chalu Hai Review: Based on true events, this movie is thought-provoking and inspiring
Rebel Moon Part 2 Review: This movie doesn't feel anything new or worth remembering, which is a shame.
I wouldn't mind a good Zorro movie again but it would have to be a different and good original script...something new that we haven't seen before.
Do we really need to put Zorro in the future? That's just compensating for a weak script from the start.
