Sheldon Turner (UP IN THE AIR, X-MEN: FIRST CLASS) is developing the reboot. The original series ran from 1977-1984.
MAD MAX---George Miller said Furiosa (Charlize Theron) probably won't be back for the next sequel, "I’m not sure...She’s not in the Mad Max [sequel] story, but in one of the stories there’s an interaction between [Max and Furiosa]. I can’t really say more than that because it’s still in progress.”

STAR WARS---a reliable source said Michael B. Jordan (FANTASTIC FOUR) will play Boba Fett in the spinoff movie featuring the bounty hunter.
INHUMANS---Vin Diesel said he might provide the voice for another Marvel character in addition to Groot, "We've heard a lot of talk about Marvel wanting to have me play a character that doesn't have my voice. So my voice is used for Groot and my presence is used for the other character." Speculation is the other character is Black Bolt in the rumored INHUMANS movie.

TIME BANDITS---Terry Gilliam is developing a tv sries based on his movie, "...We are involved in two possibilities - one, a TV series based on TIME BANDITS, another based on a script by Richard LaGravanese and I wrote after Fisher King, called THE DEFECTIVE DETECTIVE. We're currently adapting a two-hour film into a six-hour series. It's about a middle-aged New York cop who was once a hero who has grown fat and cynical and is in the middle of a breakdown, ending up in a child's fantasy world where the rules of the mean streets of New York no longer apply. The best way to kill a dragon is no longer a gun, but a tree branch you think is a sword."

The 1998 reboot with Malcolm McDowell was quite good, sadly all too short-lived.
This doesn't seem as much fun based this post, but I'll wait and see what they come up with.
