In a modern twist, the beloved 2003 Disney movie “Holes,” which captivated children’s screens everywhere, is set to be reimagined by Disney’s streaming service. This film, based on the book of the same name, featured Shia LaBeouf as a wrongfully accused teenager in a Texas detention camp and Khleo Thomas as Zero, his fellow inmate. The exciting adventure is now slated for a television remake on Disney+, but with a few unexpected changes.
Based on reports from Variety, Disney+ has approved a pilot episode for a new series inspired by Louis Sachar’s acclaimed 1998 book “Holes”. This revamped version will offer a fresh take on the original story, featuring a protagonist who swaps genders, created by writer and executive producer Alina Mankin (known for her work on “Katy Keene” and “Lodge 49”). Liz Phang, who has produced shows like “Yellowjackets” and “The Strain”, will be the showrunner. Additionally, Drew Goddard, currently directing “Matrix 5”, will serve as an executive producer for this project. The official summary for the upcoming pilot should resonate with fans of the film:
In this modern take on Louis Sachar’s 1998 novel, a young woman finds herself in a harsh detention facility run by a strict warden. Here, she and the other inmates are compelled to excavate pits for an enigmatic reason.
Besides Shia LaBeouf and Khleo Thomas, the cast of the movie “Holes” also featured Sigourney Weaver, Jon Voight, Patricia Arquette, Tim Blake Nelson, Eartha Kitt, and Henry Winkler. Andrew Davis, known for directing action thrillers like “The Fugitive” and “Collateral Damage,” helmed this Disney film in 2003. Here’s the official synopsis of “Holes.”
