Steven Spielberg has landed the rights to the science-fiction novel Chocky with plans to direct it himself.

The story is about a young boy becoming friends with an alien entity that has taken up residence in his consciousness

If its anything like the 80s TV Series, it'll be low key, with limited special effects.

watched an episode of the UK tv show on Youtube recently. It was surprisingly good (95% of retro stuff I see usually disappoints). I think this movie could be a real winner!
