SDCC ’09: Special ‘Where the Wild Things Are’ Featurette
Bloody-Disgusting’s BC has seen it and scream that it’s pretty effin’ scary. Sh*t, I saw the footage at the San Diego Comic Con and it was pretty intense (yet mesmerizing and beautiful). Shown alongside the clips and trailer was a special featurette featuring Where the Wild Things Are author/illustrator Maurice Senda, along with director Spike Jonze. The clip is now available for your viewing pleasure below, in addition to the third trailer that if you haven’t seen yet, do so immediately. Featuring Catherine Keener, Max Records, Mark Ruffalo, Lauren Ambrosea and James Gandolfini, the film will combine voice performances, live-action puppetry and computer animation to dramatize the ad-ventures of Max, a rebellious young boy who runs away from home after a fight with his mother and finds himself in a forest where the wild things roam. Warner Bros. will finally release this adaptation in theaters October 16th.

Keanu Reeves Describes Untitled Time Loop Thriller from Director Tim Miller as ‘Groundhog Day’ With Sharks
At one point known as Shiver, Tim Miller‘s (Deadpool, Terminator: Dark Fate) next movie doesn’t yet have a title, but star Keanu Reeves offers a very intriguing tease this week.
Chatting with Collider, Reeves explains what drew him to the mysterious upcoming project from director Tim Miller. He tells the outlet, “Sharks. Time machine. Groundhog Day.”
That lines up with early plot details that surfaced earlier this year, with the film said to center on a “smuggler in the middle of a deadly double-cross while on a job in the Caribbean Sea.”
That synopsis continued, “Surrounded by bodies, hostile mercenaries, and bloodthirsty sharks, the man finds himself in a time loop and scrambling to break the cycle.”
Callie Cooke (“The Stranger”), Stefan Kapičić (Deadpool), Steven Waddington (Sleepy Hollow), Nicholas Duvernay (“The White Lotus”), Abraham Popoola (Cruella), Anastasia Safonov, and Bobby Holland Hanton (Thor: Love and Thunder) also star.
Ian Shorr (Splinter, Infinite) penned the screenplay for the sci-fi thriller, which had previously been described as having shades of Edge of Tomorrow and The Shallows.
Stay tuned for more on the untitled Warner Bros. project.
