Naomi Watts will star in and Martin Campbell is in negotiations to direct Universal's new version of The Birds, Variety reported.

The movie is planned as a reimagining of Daphne du Maurier's original short story, which inspired Alfred Hitchcock's 1963 classic movie.

Michael Bay, Andrew Form and Brad Fuller will produce through their Platinum Dunes company, while Peter Guber and Cathy Schulman are producing for Mandalay Pictures.

Stiles White and Juliet Snowden wrote a version of the script that is still being developed. New writers may be brought aboard.

Do we REAAALLY need another version of The Birds??? We've already had a sequel done in 94..now...a remake...*sighs*
