It appears as though Spyglass Media have found their writing/directing team for the upcoming reboot of Clive Barker's classic, Hellraiser.
The 1987 film, an adaptation of Barker's own novella- The Hellbound Heart- introduced fans to Lemarchand's Puzzle Box and the iconic Cenobites led by Doug Bradley as Pinhead.
As reported by The Hollywood Reporter, the filmmaking team behind The Night House are reuniting. The screenplay will be from Luke Piotrowski and Ben Collins, with David Bruckner helming the film in the directors chair. Collins and Piitrowski are also behind the iconic found footage anthology V/H/S and it's spin-off film SiREN. Bruckner directed parts of V/H/S as well as Night House and The Ritual. David Goyer will be writing the story and producing the reboot via his Phantom Four banner with Keith Levine.
No word on the casting as of yet. For me, I doubt they'll find anyone as good as Bradley was as Pinhead.
