Michael Eisner is out of work, but son Breck is going from strength to strength.

Eisner is now set to direct a re-make of Universal’s Creature From the Black Lagoon with Gary Ross producing. Eisner made his feature directorial debut with the modest action hit Sahara.

Ross’s father, Arthur A. Ross wrote the script of the original 1954 Creature. Ross-the-younger has penned the re-make.

In the first iteration, the monster Gill Man terrorized archaeologists exploring in the Amazon. According to Daily Variety, the remake will shoot in the U.S., Central and South America.

Breck Eisner’s pre-film TV directing gigs include Steven Spielberg Presents Taken and pilots for Thought Crimes and The Invisible Man.
