James Cameron may enter ‘The Forbidden Planet’

James Cameron has been considering this project (amongst others) for many years, but now with Warner Bros apparently pushing forward at full speed, Cameron is apparently chomping at the bit again to helm this remake of the original 1956 sci-fi classic. Cameron’s last film was in 2005 and is currently working on his 3D epic ‘Avatar’ which will be followed by ‘Battle Angel’. In addition, he also already has ‘The Dive’ on his plate and is producing the remake of ‘Fantastic Voyage’. If we do see a ‘Forbidden Planet’ remake from Cameron, it may be a while.

Cameron and close partner and friend Gigantic Ego, may want to have first shot at bringing one of the most ground-breaking science fiction films of its time back to the big screen. Imagine the new technology he could create for Robby the Robot.
