The Omen

Dan McDermott is writing a script for The Omen 666 that contemporizes the tale. Project is on a fast track, as the studio has set a tentative Oct. 3 start date, says Variety.

Richard Donner directed the original, which starred Gregory Peck as an ambassador whose dark secret --allowing a baby to be substituted for the one his wife (Lee Remick) lost in childbirth -- comes back to haunt him when the hellish prodigal son begins to hit his evil stride.
