Major Box Office Adjustments, ‘Elm Street,’ Others on the Move!
Warner Bros. Pictures made a ton of adjustments with their upcoming genre slate, staring with their reboot of A Nightmare on Elm Street, which arrives in theaters April 30, 2010, two weeks later than originally slated. Their Megan Fox starring Western Jonah Hex will now arrive in cinemas June 18, 2010, a whopping two months earlier than it’s original August date (this shows confidence in the film!). Lastly, their Dark Castle thriller The Factory has been bumped two months to a January 28, 2011 release, which is a solid date for a genre flick. Good moves altogether. As usual, click any title above for more info on each film.
Christopher Landon (Happy Death Day, Freaky) is staying busy here in 2024, directing not only the werewolf movie Big Bad but also an upcoming thriller titled Drop.
The project for Blumhouse and Platinum Dunes is being described as a “fast-paced thriller,” and Deadline reports today that Violett Beane (Truth or Dare) has joined the cast.
Newcomer Jacob Robinson has also signed on to star in the mysterious thriller. Previously announced, Meghann Fahy (“White Lotus”) will be leading the cast.
Landon recently teased on Twitter, “This is my love letter to DePalma.”
Jillian Jacobs and Chris Roach wrote the script.
Michael Bay, Jason Blum, Brad Fuller and Cameron Fuller — “who brought the script in to Platinum Dunes” — are producing the upcoming Drop. Sam Lerner is an executive producer.
THR notes, “The film is a Platinum Dunes and Blumhouse production for Universal.”
