Problem with He-Man Movie

Producer Joel Silver is spearheading the project and assigned the up-and-coming screenwriter Justin Marks to write the script. Unlike the previous He-Man movie, 1987’s Masters of the Universe, this one takes place on Eternia and tells of the origin of He-Man, the origin of Skeletor, and the origin of the power sword. Apparently it’s a very hard and edgy PG-13, nearing the R rating more than anything. Now the problem is that Warner Brothers isn’t too happy with Silver because Speed Racer flopped which means this project is encountering some resistance at the studio

Transformers 2

The official title, Transformers 2: Revenge of the Fallen, Transformers producers Tom De Santo revealed that the story will focus on a key character from the first movie who makes a dramatic comeback and attempts to settle a score. Who could it be? Jazz? Megatron? Maybe both? Stars Shia LaBeouf, Megan Fox, Josh Duhamel, Tyrese Gibson, and John Turturro will all reprise their original roles. Michael Bay is currently filming and will release Transformers 2: Revenge of the Fallen next summer on June 26th, 2009

Green Hornet Has Been Greenlit

Sony Pictures announces that The Green Hornet has been greenlit for a summer 2010 release. Actor Seth Rogen is still writing the script with his writing partner Evan Goldberg (the two also wrote Superbad) and will also star as Britt Reid. A director still hasn’t been chosen. The Green Hornet is currently set for release on June 25th, 2010, which puts it in the running against Marvel’s Thor, which hits theaters on June 4th that year. Rogen will play Britt Reid, a millionaire publisher-turned-masked crime fighter. The Green Hornet started as a radio serial in the 1930’s before being turned into a comic book, film and TV series by the 1960s. The TV show was notable for the presence of Bruce Lee as sidekick Kato, a kung fu expert with a killer car. The character was created by Fran Striker and George Trendle, who also created The Lone Ranger, another radio character that’s being adaptation, too.

Iron Mann2 will begin filming for in March of 2009.The sequel has already been scheduled for a release on April 30, 2010. Jon Favreau is expected to direct again, with Robert Downey Jr. and Gwyneth Paltrow returning as well.
You won’t have to wait that long to see Downey Jr.’s Tony Stark back on the big screen, however. Just catch The Incredible Hulk on 19th for a cool cameo. Last Iron Man added $7.5 million domestically and $4.8 million internationally this weekend to bring its worldwide total to a massive $538 million.

    I like the concept of dreamscapesaxis, and I hope that they do it.

  4. I like BATMAN SUPERMAN and SPIDER-MAN I wish to see a new type of Superhero come along too.

    I’ve written a Screenplay called SUPERKID
    Genre: Action/Adventure

    FACTS ABOUT SUPERKID

    CHRISTOPHER is SUPERKID.

    He comes from planet Earth he’s not related to Superman nor Supergirl nor Superboy and from a different family. It’s not in the time frame of Superman Supergirl and Superboy world.

    If you like BATMAN SUPERMAN and SPIDER-MAN then you’ll probably like this.

    Any Producer such as Joel Silver can take a look at it at InkTip.com.

  5. When you write a Screenplay Scarborough
    North Yorkshire United Kingdom some of them seem to believe that you want to be an actor when you write a Screenplay.

    No it doesn’t mean that when you write a Screenplay.

    Then Staff that are working that’s not in the high street Shop say you’ve got to stop talking like that if you want to be an actor when your not wanting to be an Actor just to write Screenplays.

    Even the male workers in Scarborough Council on Dean Road look at you funny when you come out of the Pub they seem to say strange things about it when they see someone different come out like your just looking for care staff or lost or other nasty things like that.

    Their mental or something.

    That is what Scarborough UK is like even before you moved to the North Yorkshire.
