The Wrap is reporting that filmmaker Ramin Bahrani (99 Homes) has signed on to write and direct a new adaptation of Ray Bradbury’s classic 1953 dystopian novel Fahrenheit 451.
Fahrenheit 451 takes place in a future American society where firemen are employed to destroy the most illegal of all commodities, the printed book. However, when fireman Guy Montag meets an eccentric young neighbour called Clarisse who shows him a past where people didn’t live in fear and oppression, he begins to question everything he’s ever known.
The book was previously brought to the big screen in 1966, with Francois Truffaut directing Oskar Werner as Guy Montag and Julie Christie as Clarisse.
