Lucifer show runner Joe Henderson has been hired to write the reboot that Lionsgate will distribute.
The original 1986 movie "was about 12-year-old boy who is abducted by a UFO and reappears eight years later at the exact same age and with no memories of what happened. When NASA officials spot a connection between the boy and a recovered UFO and try to ensnare him, the kid attempts to unravel the intergalactic mystery while trying to reunite with his family."
No release date has been announced yet.
