Award-winning Swedish commercial director Adam Berg has been chosen by Universal to helm his first feature film, the remake of David Cronenberg‘s 1983 horror classic 'Videodrome', from a script by Ehren Kruger (Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen), who is also on board as a producer. There is no word who will replace original star James Woods.
The 1983 original, which stars James Woods and Debbie Harry, follows a Toronto cable CEO who discovers a secret broadcast signal that's capable of causing hallucinations.
In the updated version, Berg and Kruger plan to modernize the concept, infusing it with the possibilities of nano-technology and blow it up into a large-scale sci-fi action thriller.
Berg won the Film Grand Prix at the Cannes Lion International Advertising Festival for his Carousel ad for Philips.
