WarGames remake in the works

A remake of the ’80s classic “WarGames” is in the works.

Deadline says Dean Israelite, director of the forthcoming “Project Almanac”, is on directing duties and Arash Amel (“Grace of Monaco”) is scripting.

The original film starred Matthew Broderick as a teenage hacker who starts a game with a computer that paves the way for a potential World War III.

MGM has toyed with the idea of a “WarGames” remake before, attaching Seth Gordon to the project a few years back.
