Underworld and Die Hard 4.0 helmer Len Wiseman is in final negotiations to direct the remake of the 1990 sci-fi action classic, Total Recall, according To Variety.
The news has travelled the interweb fast, and already gotten some of the fanboys knickers in a twist. They don't like him much, y'see, on account of the job he did with the last Die Hard film. But he didn't suggest taming down John McClane, or make Bruce Willis phone it in - so they need to untwist their panties and cop on.
The Philip K Dick short story was previously turned into a movie by Dutch helmer Paul Verhoeven, and starred Arnold Schwarzenegger as a man who has a trip to mars "implanted" in his head by a dodgy company. He then shoots people, blows shit up and makes some hilarious quips. It hasn't aged well, but was cutting edge in the early 90s.
