Hollywood has seen success with reviving popular films and TV shows rather than inventing new ideas. One 1960s TV Western ripe for a reboot, The Big Valley, was set to be remade as a feature-length film. Some parts had already been cast, including A-list actors. However, the director landed in hot water over previous indiscretions, and the movie never began shooting. Here’s what happened to the failed Big Valley reboot.

A theatrical reboot of The Big Valley was proposed in 2010. Susan Sarandon was first considered for the lead role. Jessica Lange was also considered for the part. Other actors slated for the cast were Ryan Phillippe, Richard Dreyfuss, and Bruce Dern. It was to be remade as an indie feature by filmmakers Daniel Adams and Kate Edelman Johnson, MeTV reported.

The Securities and Exchange Commission on Tuesday said it has charged director Daniel Adams with fraud in connection to his 2018 film “An L.A. Minute.”
In a Tuesday filing, the SEC accused Adams, along with music producer Michael Flanders, of defrauding two investors and inducing them to invest $160,000 through two companies Adams and Flanders co-founded together: Spiderworx Media LLC and An L.A. Minute LLC.
They obtained the investments, the SEC said, by using a “pattern of lies and deception.”
“Adams and Flanders made multiple material misrepresentations and omissions to at least two investors to induce their investments in defendants’ securities offerings,” the filing reads. “By lying to and misleading these investors, each of the defendants has violated the antifraud provisions of Section 10(b) of the Exchange Act and Rule 10b5(b) thereunder and Section 17(a)(2) of the Securities Act.”
