Looks like Sony has Halle Berry set to star in a remake of the 1985 thriller The Jagged Edge, which for the record starred Glenn Close, Jeff Bridges and Robert Loggia and was directed by Richard Marquand from a script written by Joe Eszterhas (Basic Instinct, Showgirls).
On top of this casting news, Deadline reports that the remake “is a priority and the studio has begun the search for the right writer to draft the new version.”
Could be interesting. Could be easily forgettable trash.
