RIDLEY'S REMAKE?

Over the years there have been countless rumours regarding a possible movie remake of 'The Prisoner', with many names (such as Christopher Nolan, Mel Gibson, and Patrick McGoohan himself) linked with it since the original series aired in 1967/68 (click HERE for an article about the succession of remake ideas).

The latest of these is the news that 'Alien' director Ridley Scott is in early discussions with Universal regarding a possible remake, with 'The Departed' writer William Monahan having written an early draft script. More details HERE.

The series was remade in 2009 as a TV mini-series by AMC, but was pretty much universally panned (click HERE for many reviews).
