Piper Laurie News Articles
Exclusive: Kimberly Peirce is in talks to direct Carrie, the remake of the Stephen King thriller about the telekinetic teenager who gets pushed too far at the prom and wreaks havoc on her fellow high school students. Peirce is best known for helming another troubled female coming-of-age tragedy, the Hilary Swank -starrer Boys Don’t Cry. Carrie was previously turned into the 1976 film that starred Sissy Spacek , John Travolta and Amy Irving , with Piper Laurie as the repressive mother. The script has been written by Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa, whose rewrite work helped save Spider-Man: Turn Off The Dark on Broadway. Aguirre-Sacasa set out to write a version of Carrie that is more faithful to the King book, and more grounded than the Brian De Palma -directed film. That kind of grounded material is something Peirce does well. She last directed Stop-Loss and is repped at CAA.
