'American Psycho' Remake within the Works

Government regulation is not the only real factor Wall Street ought to be worrying about. Based on Variety, author Noble Johnson continues to be hired to re-adapt the Bret Easton Ellis novel, 'American Psycho.' It was initially introduced to existence within the 1998 movie starring Christian Bale as Patrick Batemen, a wealthy investment banker masquerading like a murderer. Using the current anti-Wall Street vibe happening, a film in regards to a killing one-percenter makes total sense (also, the storyline is placed throughout the eighties Wall Street boom, so expect Johnson to experience up that culture of excess towards the max). Whomever steps in to the role of Batemen may have some large footwear to fill: Bale's performance within the original movie is terrific. Hopefully the director could keep all Huey Lewis and also the News references. Hey, Paul! [via Variety] Follow Moviefone on Twitter Like Moviefone on Facebook
