David Cronenberg’s THE FLY will have a follow-up film and it won’t be a remake

There’s something new The Moscow film in development set in the same universe as David Cronenbergis the classic 1986 horror film. 20th Century Studios wants to make it clear that this is not a remake.

The Moscow the film will be written and directed by Nikyatu Jusu and Chernin Entertainment Pietro Cernin AND Jenno Topping they are intended to produce.

There are no details shared regarding what the story of this new film will entail, but I’m curious to see what the plan is.

The Fly is based on the 1957 short story by George Langelaan, first adapted in 1958 starring Vincent Price.

The 1986 version stars Geena Davis AND Jeff Goldblum and follows the story of eccentric scientist Seth Brundle, who invents a teleportation device.

Brundle, played by Goldblum, accidentally fuses his DNA with that of a fly during an experiment gone awry. As his transformation progresses, he gradually loses his humanity, both physically and mentally, becoming a grotesque hybrid creature.

The film captures the deepening horror of his condition, with Brundle’s love interest, journalist Veronica Quaife, helplessly watching his descent into monstrosity.

The Moscow is a film celebrated for its innovative approach to body horror, a hallmark of Cronenberg’s work. The film uses practical and grotesque effects to show Brundle’s horrific metamorphosis, pushing the boundaries of what audiences had seen in films of the time.

Jusu is currently working on an untitled horror project for Universal/Monkeypaw ea Night of the Living Dead followed.
