The Hollywood Reporter indicates that 20th Century Fox is moving ahead with a remake of the 1983 Michael Douglas thriller "The Star Chamber."

In the original film, which was written by Roderick Taylor and directed by Peter Hyams, "Michael Douglas starred as an idealistic judge who, frustrated by having to let dangerous criminals go free because of legal loopholes, joins a secret society of judges bent on taking justice and punishment into their own hands."

No word yet on who’ll be directing the remake, but Fox, Hyde Park Entertainment, and producers Matthew Baer & Frank Spotnitz are on the hunt.
