The ‘Sound of Music’ actress will be involved as an executive producer for the upcoming remake of Blake Edwards’ classic movie because she feels ‘rather protective’ about it.

AceShowbizJulie Andrews will step behind the camera to executive produce a remake of her late husband Blake Edwards‘ hit 1979 movie “10“.

The 84-year-old actress will work on the new version of the film, a Hollywood composer going through a mid-life crisis who becomes infatuated with a newly married woman, which she starred in alongside Dudley Moore and Bo Derek.

The new version will take a comedic look at the question of what defines a “perfect 10” in today’s world, reported Deadline.

Karen McCullah and Kirsten ‘Kiwi’ Smith will write the script, with Sue Kroll, Jeff Nathanson, and Ashok Amritraj also producing.

“10 holds a special place in my heart. It captures Blake’s charisma and his special humor that I so adore,” Julie shared in a statement.

“I have long been rather protective about which of Blake’s brilliant works should be re-imagined. I am pleased that today’s film goers will have an opportunity to enjoy a new interpretation of this classic.”

Further details surrounding the production remain unknown.
