Craig Brewer talks ‘Tarzan’ reboot
While discussing the remake of Footloose with Collider, director Craig Brewer spoke about revisiting the famous Edgar Rice Burroughs’ character.
For Tarzan, would you want to incorporate any of the more sci-fi aspects that haven’t really been done on film before?
BREWER: Just like with Footloose, I’m a purist. Edgar Rice Burroughs didn’t get too much into the sci-fi part of the books, until after Tarzan the Untamed. So, maybe about seven movies into Tarzan, I might start thinking about space aliens, and some of those other things. I’m going to keep Tarzan grounded in the period of the original books.
Adam Cozad is also attached to help bring Tarzan back to the big screen for Warner Bros, who is seeking a triology. More on the original announcement HERE
