20th Century Fox is set to adapt Mary Shelley's 1818 novel Frankenstein, Variety reports, and Max Landis is attached to draft.
Landis, the son of director John Landis, is responsible for the screenplay of the upcoming Chronicle, to be directed by his father and set for release early next year.
Little is known about the specifics of Fox's take on the source material, but Paul Greengrass, Ron Howard and David Yates are among the names said to have expressed an interest in the helming the as-of-yet-untitled project.
Shelley's tale has, lately, been a major source of inspiration for Hollywood

Well, this is interesting. Hopefully it is better than that Wolfman remake we got a while back.
