"Beetlejuice" and "Edward Scissorhands" director Tim Burton is set to remake the classic 1958 B-movie "Attack of the 50 Foot Woman", and the script will be penned by Gillan Flynn ("Gone Girl").
The sci-fi horror film follows a wealthy heiress who grows into a giant after an alien encounter and exacts revenge on her cheating husband. The original film starred Allison Hayes, William Hudson and Yvette Vickers, and carried a budget of just $88,000.
The project is being developed at Warner Bros with Burton producing alongside Andrew Mittman and Tommy Harper. Kai Dolbashian will executive produce.
Burton's upcoming "Beetlejuice" sequel opens in theaters on September 6th. Flynn is also set to adapt her own novel "Dark Places" as an HBO limited series. She will also serve as co-creator, co-showrunner and writer of the series.
