New Look at David Tenant from Fright Night Remake

You probably recall that DreamWorks has been filming a remake of the 1985 cult film Fright Night. Word is that the new film will remain true to the frightening but fun spirit of the original, which starred Chris Sarandon, William Ragsdale, Amanda Bearse and the late, great Roddy McDowall. What this really means is thatFright Night will not morph into Twilight.
We’re interested already.Meanwhile, two new images have been released from the film, courtesy of DreamWorks, including a look at Doctor Who veteran David Tennant as Las Vegas magician and all-around vampire hunter Peter Vincent. Check them out to your left and below.
According to rumors, DreamWorks is planning a big PR push for the film just around the corner, doubtless hoping to capitalize on the big summer movie season that is almost upon us. Some strategically-placed trailers in front of the upcoming tentpoles ought to do it.
Official Synopsis: Senior Charlie Brewster (Anton Yelchin) finally has it all going on: he’s running with the popular crowd and dating the most coveted girl in his high school. In fact, he’s so cool he’s even dissing his best friend. But trouble arrives when Jerry (Colin Farrell) moves in next door. He seems like a great guy at first, but there’s something not quite right—but everyone, including Charlie’s mom (Toni Collette), doesn’t notice. After observing some very strange activity, Charlie comes to an unmistakable conclusion: Jerry is a vampire preying on the neighborhood.
Craig Gillespie (forthcoming Pride and Prejudice and Zombies, Lars and the Real Girl) helms the remake, from a script by Buffy the Vampire Slayer veteran writer Marti Noxon.
