Once to be directed by Eli Roth, the classic black & white The Bad Seed is getting a television remake.
Lifetime, the female-driven cable network, has put into development a remake of William March’s novel “The Bad Seed,” reports THR.
From Warner Horizon Television, “The drama centers on Kate, described as the perfect modern woman — a successful working wife and mother, always seeking to give the best life to her daughter. She is confronted with one problem she can’t overcome: her daughter is a relentless, murdering sociopath whose viciousness is matched only by her brilliance. Will Kate be able to learn the truth before it’s too late?”
Barbara Marshall (Exorcism Diaries) will pen the script for The Wolper Organization’s Mark Wolper (History’s upcoming “Roots” reboot, “Bates Motel”).
