Not a remake, its the prequel with the Norwegian group who first discovers the alien in the ice.
Carpenter's film begins with the Norwegians chasing the dog/alien who makes it's way to the american outpost.
They would be idiots to attempt an actual remake of Carpenter's film. That being said considering it's Hollywood they will probably eventually attempt it;)
Great promo btw, very well done! Looking forward to seeing the movie, it could be good.
Lastly, for anyone who has not seen Howard Hawk's version of the John Campbell story, check out "The Thing From Another World." One of the best 50's science fiction/horror films no doubt.
