‘Maniac Cop’ Sales Art Presented by Nicolas Winding Refn!
There’s a monster loose on the streets of New York… Or is it just a killer cop out to punish the city that destroyed him?
Pre-production is currently underway on Manic Cop, the Nicolas Winding Refn-produced remake of William Lustig’s classic 1988 slasher that’s to be directed by John Hyams.
Hyams will be shooting his Maniac Cop, penned by Ed Brubaker, in spring of 2016 in New York City.
Lustig also produced.
“I’m a huge admirer of both producers and I’d been looking to do something that bridges the gap between action and horror like this,” explained Hyam, who directed both Universal Solider: Regeneration and Universal Soldier: Day of Reckoning, back in September. “The script is able to re-invent the original with the same mythology. We had thought about shooting in the fall, but we decided on the spring to give ourselves enough time to get the best cast and crew.”

Sony returns to their own Marvel universe with the upcoming Kraven the Hunter, which has been bumped all over the release schedule. This week, it’s been bumped once more.
There was a time when Sony was going to unleash Kraven in theaters in October 2023, but the film was then bumped to August 2024. It’ll now release on December 13, 2024.
Kraven the Hunter will be the very first Marvel movie from Sony to be released into theaters with an “R” rating, with lots of bloody violence being promised.
Aaron Taylor-Johnson stars as the title character, Marvel’s ultimate predator.
“Kraven the Hunter is the visceral story about how and why one of Marvel’s most iconic villains came to be. Set before his notorious vendetta with Spider-Man, Aaron Taylor-Johnson stars as the titular character in the R-rated film.”
Ariana DeBose will play Calypso in the upcoming Kraven the Hunter movie.
Christopher Abbott (Possessor) is playing The Foreigner, with Levi Miller (Better Watch Out) also on board. Alessandro Nivola (The Many Saints of Newark) will play another villain, but character details are under wraps. Russell Crowe and Fred Hechinger also star.
J.C. Chandor (A Most Violent Year) is directing Kraven the Hunter.
The screenplay was written by Art Marcum & Matt Holloway and Richard Wenk.
