During a recent interview, director Michael Bay revealed that Sam Rockwell ("The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy") is in negotiations to thumb another ride on "The Hitcher," a remake of the 1986 thriller reports MTV.
The original followed a young man (C. Thomas Howell) who offers a ride to a homicidal stranger (Rutger Hauer). The film, to be helmed by music-video director Dave Meyers (Missy Elliott, Kelly Clarkson), will be produced by Bay's Platinum Dunes production company.
A representative for Rockwell cautioned that no contracts have been signed yet.
Thanks to 'Dan'.
