Kids Becomes Urban Warfare in New ‘Attack the Block’ Stills
While Sony Screen Gems decides what to do with the film here in the States, the lucky bastards in the UK get to see Joe Cornish’s sci-fi comedy Attack the Block in cinemas on May 11.
With the new official one sheet being released yesterday, we’ve now been supplied with a batch of new imagery that can be viewed by clicking the colorful still below.
Receiving rave reviews (including David Harley’s review here), the pic follows a gang of South London teenagers defending their housing project home against an alien attack.
Chris Columbus (Gremlins – writer, Home Alone – director) is headed back into the director’s chair for Thursday Murder Club, Amblin’s upcoming feature film adaptation of the same-titled novel written by Richard Osman. Variety first reported the news this morning.
It’s not a horror movie, mind you, but rather a star-studded murder-mystery. Think Rian Johnson’s Knives Out… only this particular murder-mystery is set in a retirement community!
Variety details, “The book, released in 2020, tells the story of four septuagenarian friends who live in a retirement community and solve cold cases for fun. When a shady property developer is found dead, the four find themselves in the middle of their first live crime.”
Helen Mirren, Pierce Brosnan and Ben Kingsley are “being eyed” to lead the cast!
Richard Osman’s 2020 novel was such a hit that it launched a franchise. Follow-up The Man Who Died Twice followed in 2021, with The Bullet That Missed coming along in 2022. And then there was The Last Devil to Die in 2023, with a fifth book in the series expected in 2025.
