Paul WS Anderson talks Death Race

Talking to Total Film at this past weekend’s Comic Con, Resident Evil: Extinction writer/producer Paul WS Anderson let slip a few new details about his planned remake of Death Race 2000.

First up: don’t call it a remake. “It’s more of a re-imagining of Death Race 2000, rather than a direct remake,” Anderson told us. “It’s set slightly in the future, at a prison, and features Jason Statham, Tyrese Gibson and Joan Allen. She plays the prison governor and she is bad ass!” laughs the director.
