First Official Images from the CARRIE Remake

Entertainment Weekly has released two official images from the new remake/re-adaptation of Stephen King's "Carrie". The book was previously adapted in the classic 1976 movie directed by Brian De Palma. The remake is directed by Kimberly Peirce ("Boys Don't Cry") and stars Chloe Moretz ("Let Me In", "Hugo") as the titular character and Julianne Moore ("The Hours", "Far from Heaven") as Carrie's mother. The new movie is said to be more faithful to King's novel and will also focus more on the relationship between Carrie and her mother. Here is what Julianne Moore told Entertainment Weekly about her role :

"This woman has clearly had a psychotic break, perhaps several. But what’s sad about it for me is that she’s clearly sick and here’s this poor child in the thrall of this person who is seriously ill. And on top of that, they have this mother-daughter relationship. So we want to make that relationship as meaningful as possible, even though it is horrible and destructive."

The screenplay was written by Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa ("Big Love", "Glee"). "Carrie" is scheduled for release on March 15, 2013.
