It was revived twice on television&#8211;in 1985 and 2002&#8211;though neither experienced the acclaim and popularity of the original.  The 2002 episodes air regularly on My Network TV, while the 1985 segments recently made it into Sci-Fi&#8217;s long-running &#8220;Twilight Zone&#8221; marathon, held yearly on the Fourth of July and New Year&#8217;s Weekend.<\/p>\n<p>A 1983 film was released to a domestic gross of $29.5 million.  It featured four separate stories&#8211;three based directly on classic &#8220;Twilight Zone&#8221; episodes and one original segment thematically based on several &#8220;Zone&#8221; stories.<\/p>\n<p>Little was said about the format for the new film, which will be written by Rand Ravich.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/view.picapp.com\/default.aspx?term=\\rod serling&#038;iid=2306528\" target=\"_blank\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/cdn.picapp.com\/ftp\/Images\/4\/f\/f\/3\/18.jpg?adImageId=1954298&#038;imageId=2306528\" width=\"320\" height=\"416\"  border=\"0\" alt=\"Rod Serling\"\/><\/a><script type=\"text\/javascript\" src=\"http:\/\/cdn.pis.picapp.com\/IamProd\/PicAppPIS\/JavaScript\/PisV4.js\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0},"categories":[3],"tags":[],"adace-sponsor":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.1 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Movie News: DiCaprio Involved in New &quot;Twilight Zone&quot; Movie<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Leonardo DiCaprio&#039;s Appian Way is joining with Warner Brothers to produce a new movie based on the &quot;The Twilight Zone&quot; series.
