"For his next trick, filmmaker J.D. Dillard will fuse a man with a fly.
Dillard, who is generating heat with his upcoming magic-centric low-budget thriller Sleight, is making the jump to studio movies with Fox’s remake of The Fly.
Dillard is in talks to direct and co-pen the project with writing partner Alex Theurer, The Hollywood Reporter has confirmed.
The movie is a remake of the 1958 sci-fi horror classic about a scientist whose teleportation experiment goes awry and he is fused with a fly. Kurt Neuman directed the original creature feature, which launched a series of low-budget sequels.
The Fly was remade in 1986 with a version directed and co-written by master horror filmmaker David Cronenberg."
