Spanish director Juan Carlos Fresnadillo, who last directed “28 Weeks Later” in 2007, the sequel to the British horror hit, has been attached to help develop a remake of sorts of the classic “X: The Man With The X-Ray Eyes” with MGM. Lou Arkoff will be executive produce the project, and Mandeville Films partners David Hoberman and Todd Lieberman will be producing with Enrique Lopez Lavigne.

“X: The Man With The X-Ray Eyes”, also known simply as “X”, is a science fiction/horror movie from 1963. It was directed by Roger Corman, from a script by Ray Russell and Robert Dillon and starred Ray Milland as Dr. James Xavier, a scientist whose experiments give him incredible X-ray vision when things go horribly wrong and he is slowly driven insane. The film is also known for also having Don Rickles in a rare dramatic role compared to his comedic background.

There are no writers or cast attached to the project yet.
