Carrie Gets Bloody In New International PosterWhat's I'm personally still waiting for is to see how this version of Carrie plans to differentiate itself from the 1976 adaptation. Everything we've seen from the movie suggests that this is going to be a carbon copy of the movie we've already seen, albeit with better special effects....by Eric Eisenberg | published: 2013-04-24 16:00:10comments

Chloe Moretz Glowers, Covered In Gore In New Carrie ImageThis is a great pic to promote the film. Sure, it's from the third act, but a third act that was already iconic. Director Kimberly Peirce needs to sell to audiences on what's different about her Carrie. And from this image alone we get some idea. Yes, there's the requisite blood, but this nearly full body shot also reveals the delicate details of Carrie's prom dress that are cake in gore and forever soiled. ...by Kristy Puchko | published: 2013-02-26 11:04:44comments
Carrie Will Now Kill You With Her Powers In October Instead Of MarchIf you're a major studio getting set to release a big name horror movie your first thought when it comes to a release date should be, "How does October look?"

Carrie Remake Promises An R-Rating And Gallons Of Blood At New York Comic ConDespite the bleakness in the plot, Peirce repeatedly used the word "fun" to describe the film, and seems confident that it will appeal to broader audiences that her past efforts. With Moore and Moretz on board, Carrie got cautious optimism from many movie fans normally enraged by remakes, but when the first teaser hits the web, I wager even more fans will be won over. In the meantime, they did share something all of you can also enjoy: the phone number for the White residence. ...by Kristy Puchko | published: 2012-10-13 18:45:40comments

Judy Greer And Portia Doubleday Confirmed For Carrie Remake RolesWith Kimberly Peirce set to direct and Julianne Moore also starring as Carrie's obsessive, not-quite-all-there mom, Carrie is all set to go into production this summer in time to meet its March 15, 2013 release.

UPDATE: Judy Greer HAS NOT Signed On To The Carrie Remake As The Gym TeacherAs much she has a reputation for comedy thanks to her work on Arrested Development and in movies like 13 On 30, Greer had a nice dramatic turn in The Descendants last fall, and she's got the kind of sweet demeanor that would make her well-suited for the role of the generous gym teacher...by Katey Rich | published: 2012-05-25 15:09:19comments
Julianne Moore And Gabriella Wilde Board Carrie RemakeThe production helmed by Boys Don't Cry director Kimberly Peirce had previously lined up Chloe Grace Moretz to front the remake. While many horror remakes of late have been little more than pale imitations of their source material, pairing Moretz with Moore immediately sets this revamp apart from the pack. Of course it's still a risky move to redo something that so many deem a classic, but I must admit curiosity as to what Pierce will do with the iconic tale......by Kristy Puchko | published: 2012-05-14 08:43:20comments
Julianne Moore In Talks To Play Carrie's Mom In The Horror RemakeWith Kimberly Peirce on board to direct, Carrie can't quite be written off as your standard knockoff horror remake, but it's hard to know exactly what to make of it at all.

Remake of Stephen King's Carrie Starring Chloe Moretz Gets Release DateRemakes are so common now that when announced they're almost immediately disregarded. Even circumstances where the project doesn't sound like such a bad idea they're still dismissed and lumped into the unoriginal pile - and often justifiably. Yet there are times when a remake is not only warranted, but......by Jesse Carp | published: 2012-04-12 20:16:20comments
Hugo's Chloe Moretz Offered Starring Role In Carrie RemakeIt appears that opportunity has been offered to a girl who isn’t exactly as known as much by name as someone like Dakota Fanning, but has consistently delivered solid performances. She also knows a thing or two about playing dark characters. In fact, upon reflecting on some of her past roles, I’m not sure I can think of a better choice to take on Stephen King’s bullied teenager Carrie White than Chloe Moretz. ...by Kelly West | published: 2012-03-27 11:17:40comments
Chloe Moretz And Haley Bennett Are The Finalists For The Carrie RemakeBoth Chloe Moretz, best known for playing Hit Girl in Kick Ass, and Haley Bennett, who will be seen alongside Ryan Gosling in Terence Malick's Lawless, are finalists for the lead in Carrie.

Boys Don't Cry Director Could Take Charge Of The Carrie RemakeThe Carrie remake is a terrible idea. First suggested last May, the project hired Roberto Aguirre-Sacassa, writer of Spider-Man: Turn Off The Dark, to pen the script, but little progress has been seen since (thankfully). There have been names suggested to play the title role, including Megan Fox and Hailee Steinfeld, but none of it has been more than rumor up to this point. Now the first name suggested for the director's chair has popped up, and while it actually isn't a bad choice....by Eric Eisenberg | published: 2012-01-04 14:30:23comments
True Grit's Hailee Steinfeld Could Be The New CarrieWe hear that Carrie’s producers are eyeing Hailee Steinfeld as a top candidate for the part of the tormented high school girl played by Sissy Spacek in the original.

The script is still being written and they won’t make any decisions until it’s done....by Josh Tyler | published: 2011-06-01 13:26:31comments
Megan Fox Wants To Play CarrieThe proposed remake of Carrie has more than enough things working against it, but towards the top of that list is finding another actress to play the lead role. Sissy Spacek's performance in Brian De Palma's 1976 film is truly iconic and even earned the actress her first Oscar nomination. Needless to say she's left some gigantic shoes to fill, but apparently Megan Fox - of all people - wants to give it a go....by Eric Eisenberg | published: 2011-05-24 20:39:40comments
Stephen King Comments On The Proposed Carrie RemakeWhen it comes to film adaptations of a writers work, few have as checkered a past as Stephen King. While the horror guru has had some of his books turned into masterpieces, many more of them are plain awful.
