You've Got Mail is getting a reboot at Warner Bros., with Jason Orley directing
By Fuzzy Mushroom · Published
Warner Bros. is remaking Nora Ephron's 1998 rom-com You've Got Mail, with I Want You Back director Jason Orley writing and directing from an earlier script by Deborah Kaplan and Harry Elfont. Neal Moritz and Tania Landau are producing, and the plot is being kept under wraps. No cast yet, so nobody is filling Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan's shoes just now.
