Dimension Films have nabbed the rights to the 1986 movie...Short Circuit, and yes...they are remaking it!


The original introduced Number 5, a robot built by the military to be a highly sophisticated weapon. However...it developed a conscience and a personality after being hit by lightning, and then needed the help of humans after it was targeted for destruction by its makers, once it became a peacenik.


S.S. Wilson and Brent Maddock, who created the characters and wrote both Short Circuit films, have been hired to write the remake. David Foster and Ryan E. Heppe will produce alongside John Hyde.

The deal was made by Dimension co-chairman Bob Weinstein, who called Short Circuit a worthy addition to its family film slate.

Foster, who produced the original with his partner Lawrence Turman and son Gary Foster, said the film will be similar in theme to the original, but it will factor in advances in technology.


Can they better the 80's original? Even with the return of the creators?

Here's a bit of nostalgia for you :)

Agreed... But I wonder if they're just thinking 'third time a charm'?
