"Children of the Corn" is probably the longest-running series of films based on the work of Stephen King. Although it is not the most successful series, it cannot be concealed that it has entered mass culture for good. Now a new adaptation of the horror story is being made.
The Hollywood Reporter was the first to inform about the ongoing work on the new version of the Children of the Corn . Producer Lucas Foster and director Kurt Wimmer ( Equilibrium ) are working on the film in Sydney, Australia . The filmmakers managed to get permission to continue working on the set despite restrictions on public gatherings. It is true that when shooting, it is necessary to stick to various restrictions, such as the limit of current crew members and cast. The creators must also keep the local police informed about the work being carried out.
