Das Boot remake in development

June 25, 2015 by Gary Collinson

Wolfgang Petersen’s classic 1981 U-boat drama Das Boot is set for das reboot treatment, with German studio Bavaria – the company behind the original movie – announcing that it is developing a remake of the Oscar-nominated film.

According to German magazine Blickpunkt Film (via Variety), Bavaria chief Christian Franckenstein, the studio is now looking to explore more profitable projects after the box office disappoinment of its historical drama Ludwig II and budgetary issues with Beloved Sisters, and will look to remake other titles in its library including the sci-fi TV series Raumpatrouille Orion, a.k.a. Space Patrol.

Adapted from the 1973 novel of the same name from Lothar-Gunther Buchheim, Das Boot followed the fictional U-96 during World War II, and starred Juergen Prochnow, Herbert Groenemeyer and Klaus Wennemann.
