Remember Chitty Chitty Bang Bang? I kind of do. It's getting a "reimagining". Fancy for remake.
Everyone’s favorite Mercedes chassis/World War I fighter plane is getting a tune-up as Barbara Broccoli and Michael Wilson’s Eon Productions are in development with Amazon MGM Studios on a reimagined film adaptation of the classic Dick Van Dyke family pic Chitty Chitty Bang Bang. Sources say that development is in early stages, with Eon and Amazon execs currently setting meetings with potential writers and directors.
The film is being developed with a theatrical release in mind, and the project builds on Eon and Amazon MGM’s partnership on the James Bond franchise.
