Noam Murro Boards ’Train’ RemakeYou’d think after the flop of Gus Van Sant’s remake of Psycho people would learn. You don’t remake Hitchcock. But, being Hollywood, they don’t learn much. Instead, plans are going ahead for a remake of Hitchcock’s 1951 classic Strangers on a Train for Warner Bros.

Titled Strangers, Noam Murro will direct the story of a psychiatrist who murders an exec’s clingy mistress and who, in turn, wants him to kill the shrink’s sister. Farley Granger and Robert Walker starred in the Hitchcock original.

David Seltzer adapted the Patricia Highsmith novel with Rand Ravich doing a rewrite. Highsmith is also known for writing the Mr. Ripley novels.

Murro is also attached to direct DreamWorks’ All Families Are Psychotic.
