20th Century Fox is
getting ready to remake the 1988 sci-fi buddy/cop film Alien Nation, which was
set in the near future where humans are forced to live with an alien race that
they keep segregated and without rights. The film starred Mandy Patinkin as the
first alien police officer, and James Caan as his racially insensitive human
counterpart that ultimately come together to solve a case.
Iron man scribes Art
Marcum, and Matt Holloway are onboard to pen what is being envisioned as a new franchise
similar to the studio's Planet of the Apes, with the first installment telling
how and why the aliens come to Earth.
Alien Nation was an
80's success story that led to a TV spinoff, several TV movies, novels, and
comic books.
