Night at the Museum is being reimagined
Night at the Museum is being rebooted by 20th Century Studios.
Night at the Museum is being reimagined with a new cast and tale.
20th Century Studios are making a new movie based on the comedy series, which sees artefacts come alive in the museum, with 21 Laps Entertainment hiring Stuber scribe Tripper Clancy to write the script.
Shawn Levy and Dan Levine will produce for 21 Laps, with Emily Morris overseeing the flick, Deadline reports.
The first three films were led by Ben Stiller, who starred as Larry Daley, a night guard who discovers the museum exhibits come to life after dark.
The first film, Night at the Museum, was released in 2006, and grossed $574.5 million. The late Robin Williams played Theodore Roosevelt, the wax sculpture of the 26th President of the United States dressed in his Rough Rider uniform, who befriends and mentors Larry.
The stellar cast also included Owen Wilson, Ricky Gervais, Mickey Rooney, Brad Garrett, Dick Van Dyke and Rami Malek.
Stiller returned for 2009's Battle of the Smithsonian and 2014's Secret of the Tomb.
An animated sequel, Kahmunrah Rises Again, was released in 2022.
The film follows Nick Daley, the son of Larry Daley, as he becomes a night guard at the Museum of Natural History.
The voice cast included Joshua Bassett, Jamie Demetriou, Gillian Jacobs and Zachary Levi.
Stiller, 59, is fond of the franchise and previously admitted the first film "appealed to the kid in me".
He told Cineworld.co.uk: "What happens when the museum closes at night? What would happen if everything came to life? I thought that the answers would be a really cool movie to see."
