Screenwriter Joe Eszterhas talks about tackling a new version of "Basic Instinct," why it's "anti-woke" and why Trump is starting to concern him.

Basic Instinct (1992) writer Joe Eszterhas is returning to pen a not-yet-titled reboot of the Paul Verhoeven-helmed box office hit, which starred Michael Douglas as Detective Nick Curran and Sharon Stone as his case’s seductive prime suspect Catherine Tramell, a manipulative crime novelist.

A "Basic Instinct" reboot is in the works from Amazon MGM's United Artists, with the film's original writer returning to pen the script.
