Tron Legacy and Oblivion helmer Joe Kosinski has been tapped to take over the long-gestating Twilight Zone movie project being produced at Warner Bros. under Leonardo DiCaprio’s Appian Way banner.  The movie will be loosely based on the classic TV science fiction series created by Rod Serling that ran from 1959 to 1964.  Two other Twilight Zone TV series, neither of which was particularly memorable, followed in 1985 and 2002, and a movie adaptation in 1983, which starred John Lithgow, was also unable to recapture the magic of the original TV series.  This Twilight Zone movie project has been around for a while.   As recently as 2011 Matt Reeves (Cloverfield) was slated to direct the film (see "Peckham to Write 'Twilight Zone' Film").
 
According to The Hollywood Reporter, the new movie version of The Twilight Zone will follow the basic structure that screenwriter Tony Peckham came up with in 2011.  Even though the Twilight Zone project is being redeveloped for Kosinski, the movie will have a single unified plot.  It will not be in the anthology format, which rarely works on the big screen (and certainly didn’t pan out in the 1983 film version). 

Dynamite Comics recently announced a new Twilight Zone comic book series that will be written by J. Michael Straczynski (see "Dynamite Heads to 'The Twilight Zone'").
