litheraAlan Moore has instructed DC not to credit him with anything having to do with the Constantine movie coming out this summer. It is currently up in the air as to why exactly he's done this, however it has said he wants nothing to do with one of his concepts brought to film ever again. (It is hard to tell from what I've read if this is because of the product or because of the way things are being handled or someone just really pissed him off.) No matter what it looks more and more like Batman maybe DC's last chance to get something right in movie form.
From Avi Arad - For 2005 - Fantastic Four will be released in July. He says they've got a great script and are now picking the right director. Elektra starts production this May, Iron Man starts production in the middle of the year for a November, 2005 release. Ghost Rider and Luke Cage are also targeted for 2005 by Sony Pictures. Also in the works are X-Men 3 (2006), The Hulk 2 (2006), Namor (2006), The Punisher 2 (2006), Iron Fist, Black Widow and Deathlok.
(Deathlok? Namor? Why don't we make a West Coast Avengers movie? Or maybe a Defenders movie. I'm sure those'd be great too. Yeesh.)
For Iron Man, Tom Cruise is still rumored to be very, very interested in the role. They shopped the movie to Spielberg who said he had other things he was doing but reportedly they're trying to keep it on that level of director.
John Singleton is in talks to develop and direct Luke Cage for Columbia Pictures. Luke Cage. Man. ... That could just be a fiasco in the waiting.
Access Hollywood will premiere the new trailer for Brad Pitt's Troy this Thursday, March 4.
The Get Shorty sequel Be Cool is filiming, moving along just fine.
Warren Zide's Anthem Pictures has acquired the film rights to Soul Calibur, the popular fighting video game from Namco.
Here is a look at a Phantom of the Opera picture. I haven't heard much about this positive or negative. They've finished principle photography. I've just seen Phantom so many times, it would have to be a truly astounding performance on screen to make much difference to me. It looks cool, though.
I want to go see Wilbur Wants to Kill Himself when it comes out. As Cody and I have started saying, "Independant film breeds independant film." (This also applies to smaller non-independant pictures.) You go to see one and suddenly, there are fifty of them you want to see in the next few months.
