10 Movie Reboots You Didn’t Know Are Coming In 2018
5. Death Wish
Death Wish is a reboot you'd be forgiven for forgetting is just around the corner since the Bruce Willis-fronted project quietly had its release date moved from November last year to March 2018.
Eli Roth has turned the original Charles Bronson series on its head and appears to have missed the point in the process. Rather than simply remaking the anti-vigilante movie, the Hostel director has transformed it into an all-guns-blazing revenge-thriller that shoots first and asks questions later.
Willis will take on the lead role of vigilante Paul Kersey, who declares war on crime after his wife is killed and his daughter is injured during a home invasion. Vincent D’Onofrio, Kimberly Elise, Mike Epps and Elisabeth Shue will co-star.
Death Wish hasn't seen a new instalment since 1994's Death Wish V: The Face of Death, but it's safe to assume Roth's take on the source material will be a far cry from the Bronson films.
