The 1986 sci fi adventure, Flight of the Navigator, is set for a remake!

The film, which will be penned by Wild Hogs and Arrested Development alum Brad Copeland, tells the story of a 12-year-old boy who is abducted by an alien spacecraft and reappears eight years later not phased by time and with no memory of what happened. When NASA scientists discovers the spacecraft and the boy’s origins, they try to exploit him. All the while, he attempts to escape and reunite with his family.

Flight only grossed $17 million during its initial release but became a cult hit when released on now-extinct VHS.

We can’t wait!
