NICOLE KIDMAN and WILL FERRELL's adaptation of hit TV show BEWITCHED is taking on a twist - it's all about remaking the 1960s series.
Going against the grain for such TV-to-film adaptations as STARSKY AND HUTCH and CHARLIE'S ANGELS, which simply updated the storyline, the anticipated movie will be about the remake of the series.
Castmember STEPHEN COLBERT explains, 'The movie's about making the remake of the television show, and I'm the head writer of that show.
'Will Ferrell plays a washed-up actor who's reviving his career by doing the remake, and I have to deal with his ego.'
OSCAR-winning actress Kidman will star as ISABEL BIGELOW, a witch who lands the lead role of SAMANTHA STEPHENS, originally portrayed by late screen star ELIZABETH MONTGOMERY.
The movie will also feature SHIRLEY MacLAINE and MICHAEL CAINE, who land roles as Samantha's parents.
