Lionsgate has tapped Noble Jones to write and direct a reimagining of "American Psycho," based on Bret Easton Ellis' 1991 novel.
Low-budget project, which has not yet been greenlit at Lionsgate, is in the early stages of development at the studio.

Set in Manhattan during the Wall Street boom of the late 1980s, "American Psycho" concerns Patrick Bateman, a wealthy investment banker by day who becomes a homicidal maniac by night. Mary Harron previously adapted the book for the 2000 feature starring Christian Bale.

Jones pitched the project to Lionsgate several months ago and recently turned in a script that explores how Bateman would fare in modern-day Gotham.

A protege of David Fincher, Jones is a commercials and musicvideo helmer who was second unit director for the Boston-shot scenes in Fincher's "The Social Network."

I just heard about this a couple days ago, and was pissed. These people in Hollywood really have no creativity, do they? I guess that's partially why I haven't paid for one their movies in a few years now. lol

lol.


same reason they needed to remake "girl with the dragon tattoo"


fuck hollywood.
yeah they had to remake Dragon Tattoo because the guy who was born to direct it wasnt. now he did and it was fucking awesome. alot better than the other IMO. as for this remake, i think it will be shit. actually i know it will be. unless it's the same director with the same cast then it will be shit. you should rarely fuck with cult classics. it usually never does too well.
