Sony has acquired the rights to Edgar Rice Burroughs' Tarzan, one of the most-adapted (and over-adapted) characters in all of fiction
, the show that dared to ask: What if Jane was a police detective and Tarzan helped her solve crimes in modern-day New York?)—who Burroughs originally created in 1912—have bounced all over the place over the years; Disney, obviously, had their own animated version in the 1990s, while Village Roadshow made the last couple of live-action movies with an assist from Warner Bros.
Now Sony’s got them, presumably in the hopes of achieving the perversely difficult task of getting movie-going audiences to give a shit about a character who pretty much everybody in the English-speaking world knows by name. Sony’s intent is apparently to do a “total reinvention” of the character, which, given how manyoutdated storytelling tropes this particular white savior-type is rooted in, is a pretty understandable starting point for any kind of new version.
