The deal has been in the works for nigh on a year, so really, the consummation of Legendary Pictures' deal to reboot/remake/recycle Godzilla is less news than an opportunity to 1) launch a casting rumor that Taylor Lautner is attached to star, 2) preemptively bitch about Hollywood being out of ideas, 3) randomly daydream that Kathryn Bigelow might want to direct it as a dark, dystopic sci-fi drama, and/or 4) bash Roland Emmerich's 1998 adaptation. What did I forget? Anyway, this is happening. [Deadline]
