Sony Screen Gems’ Major Date Shifts, 3D Maneuvers
Sony Screen Gems has made some major changes in their forthcoming genre slate. Let’s start with the highly anticipated Underworld 4, which is said to no longer be arriving in 3-D. The vampires vs werewolves action-saga will arrive in theaters on September 23, 2011. This is a major delay from the originally announced Jan ’11 date. Scott Charles Stewart’s follow-up to Legion, Priest, will now be arriving in cinemas on January 14, 2011 – shifting from its original August ’10 date – and is also said to be converting to 3-D. Lastly, The Roommate is being pushed out of its September slot all the way back to February 4, 2011. So while 2010 will be a quiet year from Screen Gems, 2011 is set to explode.

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.
