    Troll Hunter Remake

    TROLLHUNTERMARSHALLFEAT.jpg

    The English-language redux of the Norwegian monster mash TROLL HUNTER has been stomping around a little while, and now has a top horror talent confirmed to direct.

    Deadline reports that THE DESCENT and DOOMSDAY’s Neil Marshall will helm the $25-million TROLL HUNTER remake for 1492’s Christopher Columbus and Michael Barnathan, CJ Entertainment and the original’s producers John Jacobsen and Sveinung Golimo. Marshall will also rewrite Marc Haimes’ script, based on André Øvredal’s found-footage film about young documentarians discovering a hunter whose government-mandated job is to stop towering trolls from threatening mankind. Marshall’s been busy in TV of late, helming episodes of HBO’s GAME OF THRONES as well as the pilot for Starz and Michael Bay’s pirate series BLACK SAILS, which airs next year. A male star not associated with horror/fantasy is reportedly being sought to take lead of the new TROLL HUNTER.

    I thought this got announced right after the US release of Troll Hunter. Can't say I am pleased that they feel the need to remake a movie that is so new but i'll need footage before i decide on seeing it or not.

    Yup they announced there might be one but never got this far where they even have a director named.

    I really hope the movies a lot different this time around, otherwise what is the point. But we all know it'll be the same movie without subtitles.

    Not so much a remake as just an English version, eh? Kinda like what they did with Let the Right One In and [Rec]. Meh, i'm good with the originals.

    Exactly, I can't stand people that refuse to watch foreign films because they don't want to read subtitles.

    Also, I'll pass on this and stick to the original.

    I would see this if they don't do it as a found footage film like the original.

    The original pissed me off because some of the shots were far fetched for found footage. For example, there was a part after they got the new camera operator where they were driving down a back road and it looked as if one of them got out and filmed the vehicle driving down the road. Why was this shot necessary? It made it look less like found footage and more like a regular feature. Small details like this really get under my skin in films.

    Neil Marshall's Trollhunter Remake

    EXCLUSIVE: Neil Marshall has been set to direct Troll Hunter, the remake of the Norwegian film that IMG Global is financing. The Marc Haimes-scripted film is gearing toward an early 2014 production start, while there’s still snow on the ground in the locations where they will shoot.

    That means that Marshall starts work on the $25 million film as soon as he returns from Ireland, where he is shooting next season’s biggest episode of HBO’s Game Of Thrones, one that is on the scale of the “Blackwater” episode he directed, which featured one of the most ambitious battle scenes I’ve ever seen on television. Marshall also directed the pilot episode of Black Sails for Michael Bay and Starz, which airs in 2014 and has already been picked up for a second season by the network. Marshall will do a director’s pass on the script by Haimes, who recently sold an untitled pitch to Paramount with Mary Parent producing.

    Troll Hunter is being produced by 1492′s Christopher Columbus and Michael Barnathan and CJ Entertainment, along with the film’s original producers John Jacobsen and Sveinung Golimo. Marshall takes over an earlier script draft from Marc Haimes. They will aim high for the male lead, looking for a star not normally associated with the genre.

    The André Øvredal-directed 2010 Norwegian original Trollhunter focused on a group of students investigating a series of mysterious bear killings. They follow a mysterious hunter into the deep woods, learning along the way that he is a troll hunter, and that the creatures killing those bears might not confine their appetites to that species only.

    Marshall, best known for such edgy genre fare as Centurion, The Descent, Doomsday and Dog Soldiers, is repped by Principato Young Entertainment, Resolution and Carlos Goodman.

    HUGE fan of Neil Marshall's. I will watch anything the man does. His GoT episodes are amazing and I can fully support this remake. The original is amazing, but I think his prosthetic work in films will make up for the hugely CGI trolls in the original. Maybe they will still use CGI for the bigger scenes, but I think the prosthetic's will reign supreme in this film.

    Neil Marshalll isn't a bad choice.

    Though I still think there's no need for a remake.

    Is the possible use of cgi in this even debatable? I think it could have potential but as I said I hope it isn't found footage.

    Have you seen a Neil Marshall flick with loads of CGI in it? Besides they are using an older script so it could have some different scenes.

    I thought the cgi was done well in the original one...also for those of you who cannot watch "subtitles" in a flick I feel bad for you. You are missing truly ORIGINAL cinema which most american directors have seemed to of missplaced
