BREAKING: David S. Goyer and Spyglass are to breathe new life into ol’ Pinhead, as Deadline reports that The Dark Knight scribe will spearhead a new incarnation of Hellraiser.
And it appears to have the blessing of Clive Barker, given he’s a close friend to Gary Barber, the chairman and chief executive officer of Spyglass. His statement reads as so:
Clive and I go back more than 30 years together. For generations, his brilliantly twisted and imaginative Hellraiser haunted the minds of moviegoers with its searing imagery of Pinhead. David is the perfect storyteller to continue Clive’s vision for a new theatrical version of Hellraiser.
Goyer added: “I’ve been a fan of Clive’s work since the original Books of Blood paperbacks and The Hellbound Heart novella. Having the chance to reimagine Pinhead and the Cenobites for a new audience is a nightmare-come-true. Gary is a true fan as well and we’re committed to making something dark and visceral.”
