Strike Memo Reveals Lots of Juicy Info!
Source: ComingSoon.net September 13, 2007
ComingSoon.net has gotten its hands on a list that is being circulated around major talent agencies in Hollywood which includes all the movies that the studios are making a priority before the impending Writers Guild, Directors Guild and Screen Actors Guild strike next year. The list contains a lot of interesting information about upcoming movies and directors that are currently attached. (Caveat emptor: Some of these directors may not have actually signed or agreed to make the movies their next projects.) Here are some highlights followed by the full list!
- Justin Lin will be returning to direct The Fast and the Furious 4.
- Director Brad Silberling (Lemony Snicket) is attached to develop a movie based on the TV show "Land of the Lost."
- Drew Barrymore is slated to direct her first feature, something called Whip It.
- Summit is trying to get rolling on the thriller Need directed by Ryan Murphy, which is to star Nicole Kidman and Naomi Watts. (ComingSoon.net spoke to Watts last week and she said that she's still interested.)
- Adaptations of Stephen King's Cell by Eli Roth and Yann Martel's Life of Pi by Jean-Pierre Jeunet also appear on the list, making one think they'll be rolling into production sooner rather than later.
- Guy Ritchie's name is listed next to the Warner Bros. remake of The Dirty Dozen!
- A new directing project for Robert Redford is a movie called Against All Enemies.
- Stephen Sommers is not listed as the director of G.I. Joe even though it was recently announced by Hasbro via Variety.
- George Miller is listed in parentheses for Justice League, so maybe that's not as definite as some sites would like to believe.
- The list confirms that Accepted director Steve Pink will helm Fletch Won for the Weinstein Company.
- Directors Justin Chadwick and Wayne Kramer are listed as possibles for something called Seventh Samurai from the Weinstein Company. Could this be the rumored remake of Akira Kurosawa's classic Seven Samurai?
- The Coen Brothers, whose new movie No Country for Old Men comes out later this year and who are finishing up Burn After Reading with George Clooney and Brad Pitt, have a movie listed for Focus Features called The Serious Man.
- Director John Whitesell (Big Momma's House) is listed next to a movie called Meatballs for Lionsgate, which is presumably a remake of the 1979 Bill Murray camp comedy.
- Matthew Vaughn's Thor, which was just announced by Marvel Films, is on the list of a movie that's being fast-tracked before the strike.
- Wolgang Petersen is listed as the director for a movie called Alien Uprising.
- David Dobkin will direct Monster Hunter.
