The Halcyon Company who are credited for reviving the Terminator franchise are going to revive another franchise of sorts. They bought the Phillip K. Dick estate back in 2007 in the hopes to develop films based on his stories. Many of Dick's stories influenced such science fiction films as Blade Runner, Total Recall, Screamers and Minority Report. Considering how excellent Terminator Salvation looks, I'm very excited to see what they can do with Phillip K. Dick's material. They have announced the first adaption will be from "Flow My Tears, The Policeman Said". A genetically enhanced pop singer and television star who loses his identity overnight. The story is set in a futuristic dystopia, where America has become a police state after a Second Civil War. Halcyon has yet to announce writers or a director.
