We’ve confirmed {that a} new Starship Troopers is occurring at Sony with District 9 filmmaker Neill Blomkamp writing and directing.
The brand new film will return to the 1959 supply materials by Robert A. Heinlein and never be primarily based on the 1997 Paul Verhoeven film. The unique film was one thing of a misfire on the time of launch, made for $100M and solely making $121.2M worldwide. Clearly, legacy has been on the navy astronauts versus bugs’ aspect. The 1997 film propped the careers of Denise Richards, Casper Van Dien and Jake Busey.
