Shall We Play a Game? Wargames Remake is a Go

The favorite movie of a generation of computer hackers is going to be remade.
MGM is really fixated on remakes, and their latest project is a remake of WarGames. I have to wonder if Matthew Broderick will be in it. The good news is that it will incorporate modernized video games (cool) and that Seth Gordon will be directing it. Even though it only makes sense in Hollywood logic, as the director of King of Kong, he’s at least got some video game movie experience.
The unknown is Noah Oppenheimer, the man recently hired to write the script. According to The Hollywood Reporter, Oppenheimer is a senior producer for The Today Show, but has recently branched out into feature film writing with a script called Jackie O that’s perked up a few ears. Plus, he was attached to a Snabba Cash remake that, so far, hasn’t been made yet.
Let's hope they don't screw this classic up!
