Stacey Menear has been hired to write the script for Warner Bros’ “Dennis the Menace” remake.

Gil Netter is producing.

“Dennis the Menace” was originally a comic strip by Hank Ketcham, inspired by his four-year-old son Dennis. It then became a 1959 sitcom before a 1993 live-action movie was made starring Mason Gamble from director Nick Castle.

Variety broke the news.
