The company, which opens the reboot of _Vacation_ on Wednesday, is in development on a reboot of _Shaft_, the cult Blaxploitation movie from the 1970s. _Black-ish_ creator Kenya Barris and Alex Barnow, an executive producer-writer on ABC’s _The Goldbergs_, have been tapped to write the script. John Davis, who is producing the upcoming _Man from U.N.C.L.E._ reboot and the new take on _Frankenstein_ with _Victor Frankenstein_, is producing with Ira Napoliello. The original movie told of a private detective named John Shaft, played by Richard Roundtree, who is hired to find a missing girl in Harlem. The movie was on the leading edge of Blaxploitation, a new genre that seemed to embrace and empower a rising black culture (although some said it only enforced stereotypes). The soundtrack by Isaac Hayes (the theme is one of filmdom’s classics) also contributed to the film’s cult status. _Shaft_ got a slick and polished 21st century reboot in 2000 when John Singleton directed Samuel L. Jackson, who played the nephew of the character. This new iteration will have a comedic tone but will retain its action roots. Richard Brener and Samuel J. Brown are overseeing for the studio. Barris’ _Black-ish_ mixes race and comedy as it tells of a black family living in a mostly white upper-class neighborhood. The show’s Anthony Anderson is up for an Emmy for outstanding lead actor in a comedy category. Barris, repped by CAA, Principato-Young Entertainment and Morris Yorn, also worked on _Barbershop 3_, currently in production, and has a big-screen version of TV show _Good Times_ in development as well as an untitled girls trip comedy that Will Packer is producing at Universal. In addition to his work on _Goldbergs_, Barnow co-created the Matthew Perry comedy _Mr. Sunshine_ and was a staff writer on _The Family Guy_. He is repped by UTA and Hansen Jacobson. Barris and Barnow previously teamed up for an untitled comedy about a white guy who begins to hear Ice Cube’s voice in his head, which New Line picked up earlier this spring.
