Joe Eszterhas, who wrote the script for the 1992 erotic thriller Basic Instinct, is back to pen the screenplay for Amazon MGM Studios‘ planned reboot.
United Artists and Scott Stuber have acquired the rights to the franchise relaunch that is currently untitled.
Producers include Stuber and Nick Nesbit for UA and Craig Baumgarten for Vault Entertainment. Adam Griffin serves as executive producer.
Michael Douglas and Sharon Stone starred in director Paul Verhoeven‘s original film. It centers on a detective (Douglas) who connects with a writer (Stone) as she becomes the prime suspect in the murder of a wealthy musician.
More to come.
