Jamie Lee Curtis wird als Laurie Strode für den neuen Halloween-Film zurückkehren. Damit ist das wohl nun kein erneuter Reboot, sondern wohl eher eine Fortsetzung der alten Halloween-Reihe.

Wie kann das denn sein? Ihr Charakter ist doch in ihrem letzten Halloween Film gestorben...

It was over two years ago that Blumhouse announced they were set to bring the next chapter in the Halloween franchise to the big screen and have continued to turn heads with their ideas for the project. Their latest announcement is definitely intriguing as they’ve confirmed Jamie Lee Curtis will return to the franchise that kicked off her career and she will once again be playing the iconic role of Laurie Strode, who comes to her final confrontation with Michael Myers.
Fans are likely scratching their heads at this revelation, since Curtis’ character was unceremoniously killed off in Halloween: Resurrection in 2002, but in true Halloween franchise fashion it would appear that the film will be ignoring the continuity of many of the sequels in favor of telling its own story. Curtis has previously appeared in four films in the series, including the 1978 original, its 1981 sequel, 1998’s Halloween H20: 20 Years Later, and Resurrection.
David Gordon Green (Pineapple Express, Your Highness) will direct Halloween and co-write the script for the film with Danny McBride (yes, Eastbound & Down star Danny McBride).
Carpenter will executive produce with Malek Akkad producing for Trancas and Jason Blum producing for Blumhouse. Green and McBride will also executive produce under their Rough House Pictures banner. Zanne Devine and David Thwaites will oversee for Miramax which is co-financing with Blumhouse.
The film will arrive in theaters from Universal Pictures on October 19, 2018, forty years after the premiere of the original film.

Ich vermute einfach mal ganz frech, dass der Film auf dem Original aufbaut und alle Filme, die danach kamen, ignoriert. Dazu wird wohl hier auch wieder John Carpenter die Musik schreiben.

So kann man es angesichts von blanken Brüsten, Hackebeilen und Kunstblut natürlich auch sehen.

Ne, ich fand nur das Timing komisch. Joss Whedon dreht ja auch gerne mit Freunden...

So lange, wie man braucht. Und ne Ablenkung kann sicherlich nicht schaden. Ich fand nur, dass es im Kontext mit der DC-Produktion irgendwie Gschmäckle bekam...

Kevin Spacey to Be Replaced by Christopher Plummer in ‘All the Money in the World’

Following numerous allegations of sexual misconduct against Kevin Spacey, Sony and director Ridley Scott are planning on replacing the Oscar-winning actor, who plays John Paul Getty, in their upcoming release of “All the Money in the World” with Christopher Plummer.

The film is expected to open on Dec. 22. Sources say they plan to shoot Plummer’s scenes over the next couple of weeks and insert his footage in time to make the release.

Mark Wahlberg and Michelle Williams also star in the movie, and are expected to be involved with the reshoots. Sources say the shoot is plausible, as there are plenty of scenes where Getty is the only main character in the shot. Sources estimated Spacey shot around two weeks worth of footage, meaning the deadline isn’t impossible, but still quite tough to pull off.

The film was recently pulled from the AFI Fest due to the news revolving around Spacey, but the studio was standing by releasing the film on its original date.

The Black List screenplay, written by David Scarpa, centers on the 1973 kidnapping in Italy of J. Paul Getty III — the rebellious teenage grandson of oil billionaire J. Paul Getty, who was reluctant to pay the $17 million ransom demanded by the kidnappers.

Deadline Hollywood first reported the news.

Wird da wohl auch Freddies Zeit in München thematisiert?
