20 May 2013 7:53 PM, PDT | DreadCentral.com | See recent Dread Central news »
Were you a fan of The Orphanage? If so, you'll be interested to hear that film's producer, Rodar y Rodar, is teaming with Atresmedia, the film arm of top Spanish broadcaster Atresmedia group, to produce $20 million sci-fi thriller Mirage, Rodar’s English-language debut.
Per Variety, Oriol Paulo, who helmed Rodar’s early-year hit El cuerpo (The Body), has written a second-draft screenplay and is on board to direct.

Check out the original's trailer here]
A character-driven psychological thriller, Mirage turns on a mother battling to find her lost son. It is set in a middle-class small U.S. town in parallel worlds of 1980, 2000, and 2014, said Rodar producer Joaquin Padro. The plan so far is to shoot exteriors in North America and interiors in Spain, where costs are considerably lower.
“Mirage is based on a terrifying premise,” Paulo said. “What if one life had to be lost in order to save another?”
Look for more soon.

The Orphanage Remake Still on the Table with Several Others
21 January 2013 12:09 PM, PST | DreadCentral.com | See recent Dread Central news »
Even though we haven't heard a damn thing about it in quite some time, Screen Daily is reporting that Spain’s Rodar y Rodar Films has just announced its slate of upcoming films, which includes the remake of The Orphanage.
The site reports that a “new international version of ‘The Orphanage’ from Ja Bayona” is on its way along with remakes of Guillem Morales’ Julia’s Eyes and The Uninvited Guest as well as a remake of Oriol Paulo’s The Body. It's like Rodar y Rodar's way of saying to the world, "If you missed it in Spanish, you're getting it in English!" No word on if Bayona will be directing the remake. Our guess is he'll serve as producer, etc. After all, here in America we love to give remake jobs to music video directors. That's like our thing.
