Take Down, scripted by Ransom screenwriter Alexander Ignon, follows a group of privileged international teens who fight back when their remote boarding school is besieged by armed kidnappers. I Know What You Did Last Summer‘s Jim Gillespie will direct in his first film since 2005′s Venom. (He most recently co exec-produced the Euro miniseries World Without End, based on the novel by Ken Follett.) Producers include Ed Elbert, Sarah Ryan Black, former Imagenation Abu Dhabi COO Stefan Brunner, Studio Eight’s Jamie Brown and Alex Brown, and Alex Tate. Casting begins soon ahead of a UK shoot this fall, and Ignon is already scripting a sequel with an eye toward franchise opportunities. Gillespie is repped by United Agents, and Ignon is repped by Affirmative Entertainment. Radiant Films International is handling foreign sales.


So they are making a remake of “Toy Soldiers”!!!! WIL WHEATON RULES!!!!!
Pots and Pans!
I loved this movie when it was called TOY SOLDIERS! Can’t wait..!!
Is that really Gillepsie in the pic there? wow, he has aged in 15 years!
Thank you to the above!
I knew when I’d seen the movie when I read the article but I couldn’t remember the name of it. I hope the original screenwriter of Toy Soldiers gets money for the remake.
Ignon (aka Sean Connery) is a hell of a writer. If it’s nearly as good as “Ransom”, we are all in for a treat.
This sounds dreadful. More creative bankruptcy on display.
