Given that Starship Troopers is somewhat of a cult classic,
many fans are not even entertaining the thought of a possible reboot.
However, as a reboot film is in the works and the producers
are not winning fans over after claiming that they are aiming for a less
violent take on the story, Empire reports.
In an interview with Empire, Toby Jaffe said: "The more
expensive a film is, the harder it is now to make it that violent. With Recall
in particular, we made a conscious choice to keep it tonally closer to
something like Minority Report. It gives the studio, and us as producers, the
opportunity to reintroduce it in a new way."
What is cool, however, is that Jaffe mentions the "jump
suits" featured in Robert Heinlein's book: "Working in a
visual-effects renaissance as we are, we have the ability to do so much more
now. We can do the Jump Suits [armoured exoskeletons from Heinlein's novel],
for example, which I don't think they could have done before."
No word on a release date or director but Thor and X-Men:
First Class screenwriters Ashley Edward Miller and Zack Stentz have written the
script.
