Imagine my surprise while reading through Wikipedia's article on Robert Wise's
The Day the Earth Stood Still when I came upon this statement toward the end:
Quote:

"Twentieth Century Fox has signed Keanu Reeves to play Klaatu in a remake.[2] Jennifer Connelly has signed on to play Helen Benson, while Kathy Bates is in negotiations. Scott Derrickson will direct a screenplay written by Ryne Douglas Pearson and David Scarpa. Filming will begin in Vancouver in December 2007.[3] It is due for release on December 12, 2008.[4]"

Has anyone here ever heard about or read this?
Of course, I am uncomfortable with the idea. But what to make of this news?
Amazing.
