JJ Abrams to make the earth shake

JJ Abrams, along with the writer of the original Omen movie and, regrettably, its inferior 2006 remake, David Seltzer, are to work together developing an earthquake-themed disaster movie.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, the film, which is yet untitled, will not be a straight-up remake of the 1974 movie Earthquake, in which the tectonic plates shifted unleashing all manner of trouble upon Los Angeles and Charlton Heston. Details on the project remain scant, but with Abrams involved there is sure to be more to the movie than meets the eye.
