Paul Rudd and Jack Black might be heading to the jungle. Deadline is hearing that while no deal is done, the two are in early talks to star in new take on Anaconda at Sony Pictures. The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent writers Tom Gormican and Kevin Etten penned the script, with Gormican planning to direct. Brad Fuller and Andrew Form are producing through Fully Formed banner.

...

Sources say this latest version is not a remake but a new take with the same snake front and center, with a story that leans more toward comedy.

    True, though in the perspective of B-movie schlock, it should hardly matter. How the first film ever got ahold of Jon Voight, Jennifer Lopez, Eric Stotz (ok, that one I believe), pre-fame Owen Wilson, Danny Trejo, Jonathan Hyde (from The Mummy), and 1st era MTV VJ Kari Wuhrer is anyone's wonder. It's terrible fun to watch. Preferably in Rifftrax format.

    So JB is going to star as the snake, right? Giving KG the squeeze was just him working on his method.

    Are the bajillion other Anaconda movies going to stay canon or are they going to go the boring route?
