10 Horror Remakes Coming In 2019
5. Firestarter
Stephen King, the hot potato he is when it comes to Hollywood fanfare, has been at it again - and a remake of one of his classic adaptations is in the works for what should be a 2019 release.
'Classic' doesn't necessarily denote any good, however, so the latest interpretation of King's far superior novel has a chance to really er, heat things up when it does hit screens. Or potentially become a real trailblazer. At the very least, it's a hot property. You get where I'm going here.
Considering the popularity of Stranger Things and its central young girl with supernatural powers hounded by the government to be used as a weapon, it only seems fair that the original big daddy of this very specific genre gets the attention it deserves, and there's no better way to do that than with a good old fashioned reboot. Roll on some pyrokinetic firestarting The Prodigy themselves would be proud of.
