Bosses at Columbia Pictures secured the rights to the blockbuster earlier this year and Equilibrium writer Kurt Wimmer is working on a new script for the planned remake, reports contactmusic.com.

In the original, Schwarzenegger, who is now California governor, had played a man who believes he is a secret agent and is haunted by a recurring dream about travelling to Mars.

Executives describe the upcoming version as a "contemporised adaptation" but they are yet to announce the cast for the lead role.
