Today, Universal has announced that there is a remake in the works for the 1985 John Hughes classic Weird Science. The plan is to create an updated, R-rated version of the timeless story of two horny nerds that create their dream woman from a computer program.

Michael Bacall has been tapped to pen the script and his previous efforts include Project X, 21 Jump Street, and Scott Pilgrim vs. The WorldJoel Silver has been announced as the producer, but there’s no other word on casting or director details just yet.

While I’m not saying this will be a complete train wreck, do we really need a remake of this? Moreover, many were groaning about the prospect of a 21 Jump Street movie and that turned out to be one of the funniest films of last year.  Time will tell and we’ll certainly keep you abreast on all the latest updates.
