[Comic-Con ’13] “Holy Crap” To This Incredible ‘Carrie’ Banner!
I know it’s a new version of Stephen King’s novel, and we’re supposed to be angry about it, but I can’t help but be excited for Sony Screen Gems’ new version of Carrie, directed by Kimberly Peirce.
It’s insane how far Chloe Grace Moretz has come since her role in Platinum Dunes’ The Amityville Horror remake of 2005. Now, she’ll be the ultimate Prom Queen when the reboot hits theaters on October 18.
Yahoo! premiered this astoundingly aggressive and eye-catching banner that will grace the halls of this week’s San Diego Comic-Con. Everything released thus far has been nothing short of spectacular. Let’s all collectively use our psychic abilities to ensure it’s good…
“A reimagining of the classic horror tale about Carrie White (Chloë Grace Moretz), a shy girl outcast by her peers and sheltered by her deeply religious mother (Julianne Moore), who unleashes telekinetic terror on her small town after being pushed too far at her senior prom. Brian De Palma’s 1976 film version of Carrie earned Oscar nominations for stars Sissy Spacek and Piper Laurie.“
Keith C. Blackmore’s book series Mountain Man is headed to the screen, with Deadline reporting today that Joe Manganiello (“True Blood”) is on board to star in the film adaptation.
The actor will also produce the upcoming zombie movie.
“Mountain Man tells the story of Gus, a lonely post-apocalyptic survivor facing isolation and the ever-present specter of a zombie attack, who struggles with alcohol abuse and suicidal thoughts until he discovers another survivor, a captivating woman who poses another threat altogether.”
John Lee (False Positive) will direct Mountain Man from a script by Matt Deller.
“John is a brilliant creative mind. We’ve been looking for the right thing to do together since we filmed Pee Wee’s Big Holiday and it’s finally here,” 3:59’s Joe and Nick Manganiello told Deadline. “Very excited to get to work on such weird, wild project with him.”
Film Bridge International is launching sales on the project in Cannes.
Blackmore’s Mountain Man series features 7 books, the first one published in 2011.
