Note From the Editor: San Diego Comic-Con 2011
The San Diego Comic-Con is upon us, and it’s quickly taking over the Web.
Bloody Disgusting will be on hand ripping up the event from July 21-24, keeping you up to the minute with new art, interviews and breaking stories. We were one of the first to do it, and we’re also going to be the last…
We understand that a lot of you aren’t going to be going – as it does take place in San Diego – so much like last year we won’t be punching you in the nose and assaulting you with 400 stories about each announced panel. Instead we’ll be breaking the BIG reveals (like movie premieres), along with FULL breakdowns of what will be happening each and every night once the Comic-Con gets everything lined up.
Watch this spot for pure insanity July 21-24.
In addition to Leigh Whannell’s upcoming Universal Monsters movie Wolf Man, Julia Garner (The Royal Hotel) has also joined the cast of Weapons, THR has announced tonight.
Weapons is the new horror movie from New Line Cinema and director Zach Cregger (Barbarian), with Julia Garner joining the previously announced Josh Brolin (Dune 2).
The upcoming Weapons is from writer/director Zach Cregger, who will also produce alongside his Barbarian producing team: Roy Lee of Vertigo and J.D. Lifshitz and Raphael Margules of BoulderLight Pictures. Vertigo’s Miri Yoon also produces.
The Hollywood Reporter teases, “Plot details for Weapons are being kept holstered but it is described as a multi and inter-related story horror epic that tonally is in the vein of Magnolia, the 1999 actor-crammed showcase from filmmaker Paul Thomas Anderson.”
Cregger was a founding member and writer for the New York comedy troupe “The Whitest Kids U’Know,” which he started while attending The School of Visual Arts. The award-winning group’s self-titled sketch comedy show ran for five seasons on IFC-TV and Fuse. He was also a series regular on Jimmy Fallon’s NBC series “Guys with Kids” and the TBS hit series “Wrecked,” and was featured in a recurring role on the NBC series “About a Boy.”
Weapons will be distributed worldwide by Warner Bros. Pictures.
