The star said that Tim Burton was originally attached to direct “After Hours.
Dunne is set to release a memoir in June titled The Friday Afternoon Club — detailing his family history, which includes his father Dominick, a writer for Vanity Fair, his sister Dominique, tragically murdered and known for her role in “Poltergeist,and his aunt Joan Didion.
Before pursuing acting, the star of “The Girls on the Bus” expressed aspirations to become a writer or journalist, but his academic journey took a detour when he was expelled from high school. “I was attending a boarding school in Colorado and got caught smoking pot,” he confessed. “Coincidentally, Colorado was the first state to legalize pot, so my timing was a bit unfortunate.
Dunne recently revealed that Tim Burton was initially involved in directing the influential 1980s New York City film “After Hours.” “It would have embraced a darker visual aesthetic,” he shared with the British Film Institute.

Everything would have taken on a different hue… I believe we would have appeared as though we were already among the deceased, and ‘After Hours’ would have unfolded in a realm resembling the underworld. In an alternate reality, I would have been intrigued to witness that rendition of the film.
