“The Others” is Getting a Reboot but There’s a Catch

The Others

When people talk about twists in movies, The Others will certainly come up. The film follows Nicole Kidman as a mother who must raise her two children who have a rare disease that makes them sensitive to light. Its story and its twist ending was a success in the box office, and received good reviews and a slew of awards. It comes to no surprise that Hollywood is interested in doing a reboot. There’s a catch, though.

Instead of being set after World War II, the reboot will be set in the modern times. According to Renee Tab, who will be one of the producers of the reboot, “I am honored to be able to work on my favorite horror film of all time, ‘The Others,’ and to bring this reimagining to the big screen for new audiences.”

She added, “It is almost eerie and uncanny how timely the themes are today: self-isolation, paranoia and fear, and of course the intense desire to protect our children and ourselves from harm. We look forward to unraveling the layers behind lead character Grace, whose pain and demons draw viewers into a truly compassionate journey.”

There’s no word when the reboot will premiere.
