Producer
Gale Anne Hurd is making the rounds thanks to the new
Terminator movie, and
the JoBlo Movie Network's Arrow In The Head has posted a teaser scoop about
The Boston Stranglers from a forthcoming interview with Hurd. Hurd tells the site's
Jimmy O that the upcoming
Brian De Palma-directed picture has been set up at
Overture Films, where
Michael Moore is currently working on his sequel to
Farenheit 9/11 (other projects being developed by the company, which recently developed and/or distributed
Righteous Kill,
Last Chance Harvey, and
Sunshine Cleaning, include remakes of
Let The Right One In and
The Crazies). Hurd said they are casting now on
The Boston Stranglers, with an aim to shoot in the fall. Here is the full text of what Hurd said, according to Arrow In The Head:
The true story of something that we… we all think we know the true story now, but we don’t. Which is that Albert DeSalvo was branded The Boston Strangler, there was a movie about him with Tony Curtis as DeSalvo. As it turns out he was never convicted of the crime. The film is set up at Overture and we’re in the process of casting. And we hope to shoot in the fall.
