According to The Hollywood Reporter, the Columbia Pictures studio intends to restart the 1997 Horror "Anaconda", in which Jennifer Lopez played the main role. According to the source, the creators want to recycle the original story, making a modern blockbuster in the spirit of "Meg: Monster of the Depth." The script for the new "Anaconda" will write Iven Dogrti, who previously worked on Tomb Raider: Lara Croft and Franchise "Snow White and Hunter".
Recall that the 1997 version tells about the group of film reporters who went to the expedition on the Amazon River. On the way, they meet a person who agrees to become their conductor. In fact, he turns out to be a cunning hunter who expects to catch the legendary anaconand with the help of the expedition members. In addition to Lopez, the key roles in the film were played by Ice Cube, John Voit, Eric Stalkie, Owen Wilson, Kari Vurer and Jonathan Heyde. Despite crushing criticism, "Anaconda" gained success in the audience, having received several sequels subsequently.
According to sources, the new version of Anaconda will not be a continuation of the original, and its rethinking. If the film of the late 90s was a simple and relatively cheap project of the category "b", the upcoming picture will differ in a large budget and ambitions. On whether Jennifer Lopez will return to his former role, there are no information at the moment.
