"The tone is going to be very intense, very much keeping in mind the post-9/11 world that we're in," says Ellsworth, who was 11 when the original was released. "As 'Red Dawn' scared the heck out of people in 1984, we feel that the world is kind of already filled with a lot of paranoia and unease, so why not scare the hell out of people again?"...says Ellsworth in THIS ARTICLE in The Hollywood Reporter. Dan Bradley will direct the new RED DAWN. Bradley's mammoth career includes Second Unit Direction of...and/or stunt coordination on...titles like SPIDER-MANs 2+ & 3, BOURNEs SUPREMACY & ULTIMATUM, QUANTUM OF SOLACE, and...well...INDIANA JONES AND THE KINGDOM OF THE CRYSTAL SKULL. You can find our initial report about the announcement of this remake HERE. Still no word on which current "threat to the United States" will invade us this time around, or if Russia will once again draw the short straw. The choices of bad guys seem limited if The Powers That Be hope to retain the film's title.
