Tim Burton Plans to Shoot a Remake of the Horror Film about a Giant Woman

In an exciting development for fans of classic cinema and modern filmmaking alike, Tim Burton is embarking on a creative journey to reimagine the 1958 cult classic, “Attack of the Fifty Foot Woman” (directed by Nathan Juran), for Warner Bros. This project promises to blend Burton’s unique stylistic vision with the original film’s (starring Allison Hayes) intriguing premise, where a wealthy heiress becomes a giantess following an encounter with an alien.

The original film, celebrated for its distinctive mix of science fiction and dramatic tension, has captivated audiences for decades, evolving into a beloved cult classic Burton’s adaptation (for which Gillian Flynn is set to write the screenplay) is poised to breathe new life into this iconic story, offering a contemporary perspective while honoring the spirit that has made “Attack of the Fifty Foot Woman” a pillar in the science fiction genre and beyond.
