A prequel to the 1970s horror movie The Omen is in the works over at 20th Century Fox, so reports The Hollywood Reporter.

Antonio Campos, whose film Christine wowed the crowds at this year’s Sundance Film Festival back in January, will direct the film for the studio, which is being referred to as The First Omen.

The original movie, released 40 years ago, saw Gregory Peck as an ambassador who comes to believe that his 5-year-old son may be the living embodiment of the Antichrist. Two sequels and a 2006 remake followed that movie, and it looks like Fox wants to revive the franchise once again with the planned prequel.

The First Omen will be produced by David Goyer and Kevin Turen. That’s all that we have for now, but we’ll bring you more news as we get it.
