Seth MacFarlane is a man who has success in whatever he does. His three animated series (Family Guy, American Dad, The Cleveland Show) has lead to fantastic ratings for the Fox network on Sunday nights; but despite all of this, his big directorial debut will be made with Universal instead of Fox, because of its hard R rating.

ARRESTED DEVELOPMENT movie off again?

The ARRESTED DEVELOPMENT film is, for many people, one of the most desired and anticipated films in the past couple of years. Usually we only hear about it every couple of months, and almost every time the update contradicts the one that preceded it. Last thing we heard was that the film would be shooting at the end of the year, but now we’re hearing that it may not happen at all.

The word came from David Cross (who plays Tobias on the show), you can see what he said after the jump! Continue reading “ARRESTED DEVELOPMENT movie off again?”

Sam Raimi to bring THE SHADOW to Fox?

THE SHADOW is a property that has been around for a very long time, starting with pulp novels and radio shows. Some of you might also remember a little 1994 film with Alec Baldwin. Well, there has been talk about a revitalization of the franchise at Sony with none other than Sam Raimi at the helm, but now we are hearing that that plan might have changed.

24 the movie has acquired a screenwriter

24 has been on the air for eight action packed seasons so far, and still brings in a very large audience. The real-time format of the show is such an intriguing idea for television, and really sets the show apart from the rest. As of now, the show isn’t signed for a ninth season and many are speculating the delay is because of the long rumored film adaptation. Many fans wonder if the hit show would transition well to film, Fox has hired a screenwriter to reassure them it would. Continue reading “24 the movie has acquired a screenwriter”

James Cameron is producing FANTASTIC VOYAGE 3-D

Fantastic Voyage

I know what you’re thinking, and no it isn’t a feature version of the Coolio song (oh, how I miss you, 1994). Although Hollywood’s remake fever is usually annoying, some projects reek of promise. As of now, that seems to be the case for this project.

James Cameron spoke with MTV about his next project he is developing at Fox, a remake of the 1966 classic, FANTASTIC VOYAGE. Cameron will not be directing this movie though, however, he will be the producer. The original was about a team of doctors who are shrunk and sent inside the president’s body after an assassination attempt. They run into many obstacles on their submarine journey to his brain to remove a blood clot, which will save his life.

Being that Cameron is producing the film, it has a very good chance at being awesome. I can’t wait to see this story with the special effects that we have today. After seeing how amazing AVATAR looks in 3-D, The 3-D for this film seems more promising. I’m sure we’ll be hearing more about this project in coming months.
