Brian De Palma To Write A Horror Film On Harvey Weinstein Scandal

'Carrie' director Brian De Palma is known for making horror movies. The veteran has recently said that he is currently writing the script for a film based on the Harvey Weinstein sexual abuse and harassment scandal. The 77-year-old director, who became a force to reckon with after "Carrie" released in 1976, is set to return to the genre after a hiatus of over 40 years.

De Palma told French publication, Le Parisien, "I'm writing a film about this scandal, a project I'm talking about with a French producer”. He added, "My character won't be named Harvey Weinstein but it will be a horror film, with a sexual aggressor, and it will take place in the film industry”.

De Palma has not mentioned anything about completing the script. Moreover, the director also has films such as ‘Scarface’, ‘Dressed to Kill’, ‘The Untouchables’ and the original ‘Mission: Impossible’ to his credit. He has recently wrapped up crime thriller ‘Domino’, starring Nikolaj Coster-Waldau, Carice van Houten and Guy Pearce and said working on the film was "a horrible experience" and that the film might not release.
