Good news for us fans! It seems that due to the recent success of Twilight, plans to remake the classic 1987 Kathryn Bigelow film are off, or at least put on hold for a while. That's according to an interview with Platinum Dunes' Brad Fuller over at Empire, where he had the following to say:
“Near Dark is probably not going to happen. I think that Twilight was the same type of thing we were going for although Near Dark was a much darker, sexier, rated R version of that. But I’m concerned that, conceptually, that Near Dark and Twilight are too similar in terms of a vampire movie. For now, that movie is on hold.”
