Remake Planned for The Reincarnation of Peter Proud, based on the novel by Max Ehrlich

The Reincarnation of Peter Proud by Max Ehrlich

The Hollywood Reporter is reporting that an updated version of the controversial movie The Reincarnation of Peter Proud, based on the novel of the same name by Max Ehrlich, is being planned for Columbia Pictures.

The creative team behind the thriller Se7en, Andrew Kevin Walker and David Fincher, will (respectively) write and direct.

About The Reincarnation of Peter Proud: Peter Proud, a professor at a small California college, begins having recurring dreams that disturb him. Under hypnosis, he discovers he is the reincarnation of a young man from the 1940s who was murdered. Determined to find out who killed him in a past life, Peter begins to relive an existence that is fraught with danger.

The 1974 book is long out of print, and the 1975 film, adapted by Ehrlich from his novel and starring Michael Sarrazin, Jennifer O'Neill, and Margot Kidder, was never released on DVD.
