Exorcist Miniseries? (VIDEO)

Are the makers of the original horror classic the exorcist about to reteam for a new Exorcist miniseries? Interviews with the movie's creators seem to indicate yes:

William Peter Blatty, mastermind of the original exorcist movie (that you should immediately buy on DVD if you haven't seen it) said the following: "...I've written an Exorcist miniseries script that not only faithfully includes all the main elements of the novel, but also some rather spooky new material and scenes, as well as a totally new (and perhaps much more satisfying) ending. I've also updated it. Billy Friedkin has agreed to direct."

Here's hoping it comes together! I'm gonna program my DVR to start looking for it now..hopefully this won't attract Satan into the Tivo.

William Peter Blatty and director William Friedkin might be re-teaming for another take on The Exorcist...word is that Blatty has been working on a (spec?) script for a new Exorcist project for some time now, and that Friedkin may be on board to helm it for a TV miniseries...
