Ny "Det Onde" bliver kun for voksne

R-rating i vente for filmen.

Warner Bros er godt i gang med deres filmatisering af Stephen Kings "Det Onde", hvor en gruppe unge skal tage kampen op imod et væsen, der klæder sig som klovnen Pennywise - ethvert barns værste mareridt.

Nu har manuskriptforfatteren David Kajganich taget bladet fra munden og fortalt lidt om, hvad vi kan forvente os af filmen, der eftersigende får en R-rating.

"The remake will be set in the mid-1980s and in the present almost equally -- mirroring the twenty-odd-year gap King uses in the book -- and with a *great* deal of care and attention paid to the backstories of all the characters," fortæller Kajganich. "I think the real twist here is that my pitch to WB -- which they've assured me they're on board for -- is that this will not be PG-13. This will be R. Which means we can really honor the book and engage with the traumas (both the paranormal ones and those they deal with at home and school) that these character endure."

Han fortsætter: "I plan to be very protective of the book. The reality, though, is that WB wants to do this as a single film, so I will have to kill a few darlings to make that happen. You have my promise, though, that I will do this with the utmost humility and respect for King's work. He's the King, after all, and I intend to continue to pledge to him my allegiance."
