Larry Fessenden to Direct THE ORPHANAGE Remake

Actor, producer, director Larry Fessenden is going to be directing New Line's remake of THE ORPHANAGE, a horror Spanish-language film originally produced by Guillermo del Toro and directed by Juan Antonio Bayona.

Larry Fessenden also wrote the script with del Toro, who will be producing the remake as well, along with Beau Flynn and Tripp Vinson.

Larry Fessenden's previous work as a director include Wendigo and The Last Winter. He more recently produced and starred in I Sell the Dead (which I reviewed here and is coming out to limited theaters this Friday).

I also posted a short interview of Larry Fessenden talking about I Sell the Dead back at the LA Film Fest. You can check it out here.
