Warner Bros. is developing a new take on the 1998 romantic comedy “You’ve Got Mail,” with Jason Orley attached to direct. Multiple outlets report that the project is a reboot/remake of the Tom Hanks-led film, and that details about how the story will be updated are not yet publicly available.
The reporting focuses on Orley’s involvement and the production team. Variety and Deadline both describe Orley as directing and indicate that the script is based on earlier work by screenwriters Deborah Kaplan and Harry Elfont, though no specific plot points are shared. ComingSoon.net similarly frames the news as a remake of the classic 90s movie and cites Deadline as the source of key information about Warner Bros. and Orley’s role.
Taken together, the coverage presents a consistent baseline: Warner Bros. is moving forward with a “You’ve Got Mail” remake, Orley will direct, and further creative and storyline specifics remain confidential.
