Movie news for the nerds this week... sorry it is little late.
Star Trek 4
Apparently no one told Chris Pine that he was out… which means he hold out hope that a resolution will be found and he will continue as Captain Kirk. according to a red carpet interview at the Toronto Film Festival.
Mattel Films?
Mattel toys has created a movie branch of the company. They are set to make film adaptations of Thomas the Tank Engine, Barbie, Hot Wheels, and the like. Robbie Brenner (the producer on The Dallas Buyer’s Club) has been appointed the head of the branch.
Zombieland 2
Set to begin filming January 28th according to Geeks World Wide.
Are You Afraid of the Dark
According to /Film co-writer Gary Dauberman has confirmed that the movie will NOT be a feature length adaptation of one of the episodes. According to his statement he wants the story to keep its teeth.
“It is a completely original story I came up with, but it still has the Midnight Society and it still has the campfire. That show is so important to me. I didn’t want to age it down too much because for it’s time, it had some really disturbing episodes and some really dark episodes. Not every story the Midnight Society told ended with happily ever after or a person learning their lesson and it will never happen again. I really embraced that side of things and I think it’s been a long time. I think fear is healthy for kids. I don’t think we have to always sand down the edges of things and that’s something I really wanted to do with Are You Afraid of the Dark. I think it is scary and I think kids will be scared watching it at times, and also they’ll laugh at times. I think it’s got a great message. I think it’s got a great heart to it but it is still scary. I think that’s great. I think it’s going to open it up to a wider audience.”
Superman
Henry Cavil may still be the big blue boy scout. His management has taken to the social medias to report that the cape is still hanging in Cavill’s closet. It seems there is still contract negotiations happening, so all the crazy speculation may all be for naught.
Joker (this was filmed BEFORE the painted pictures were released)
Joaquin Phoenix’s Joker movie is moving along. Arthur Fleck has been seen in some set photos circulating around the internets… interesting…
