Sam Raimi decided against doing a sequel for the "Evil Dead" franchise, choosing instead to produce a remake/reboot which will be directed by promising young director Fede Alvarez (More on that in my post : EVIL DEAD Remake is Alive and Well ). Screenwriter Diablo Cody was brought in to do a rewrite of Alvarez's script. The interview above (courtesy of Collider) has Cody dropping a few more clues about her involvement in the remake. Apparently, her rewrites dealt more with dialogue and characters. Diablo Cody busted out of anonimity with her Oscar-winning script for "Juno". Since then she's also written the scripts for "Jennifer's Body", which turned out to be a flop, and served as creator/writer of the popular TV series "United States of Tara". She has also penned the screenplay for the upcoming movie "Young Adult" starring Charlize Theron and Patrick Wilson and directed by "Juno" helmer Jason Reitman, which will be released this December.
