Brian Geraghty joining Stranger Calls Remake

After Camilla Belle and Katie Cassidy now also Brian Geraghty (Sam Mendes' "Jarheads") joins Simon West's remake of "When a Stranger Calls". The movie is a new adaptation of Fred Walton's movie from 1979. At this time there is no official synopsis, but the original movie told the story of a young baby-sitter who is tormented by a series of ominous phone calls until a compulsive cop is brought on the scene to apprehend the psychotic killer.

Seven years later, however, the nightmare begins again when the madman returns to mercilessly haunt Kane, now a wife and mother. No longer a naive girl, though still terrified, but prepared, she moves boldly to thwart the maniac's attack in scenes that culminate in a nerve-shattering conclusion.

Released through Sony's Screen Gems the Remake will be produced by Ken Lemberger and Jake Wadewall is writing the script. Also a sequel to the remake is in developement by the studio and it's currently titled "When a Stranger Returns".
