Small ‘Alice’ Update, New Draft Completed
Back in late June it was reported that Jon and Erich Hoeber were writing a new draft for American McGee’s Alice, which was no longer at Universal Pictures. It was also noted that Marcus Nispel was no longer attached and that Sarah Michelle Gellar was now out as well. Today a new update comes in via Kotaku who reports that the latest draft is now complete and they hope to announce a new studio very soon. That’s it for now, but hopefully we’ll finally get to see this sucker by 2009 (please!).
Robert Eggers (The Witch, Nosferatu) is back later this year with new horror movie Werwulf, and the very first teaser image from the hotly anticipated movie has surfaced tonight.
Oddly enough, this first look comes courtesy of the NBC Store, and it gives us a glimpse at a chilly Winter landscape from the film. Is there a werewolf hiding in the photo? Maybe…
Set in 13th century England, Werwulf sees a mysterious creature stalk the land as local folklore becomes a terrifying reality. The film hits theaters on December 25 via Focus Features.
Robert Eggers recently teased, “It’s the darkest thing I’ve ever written. By far.”
Eggers directs from a script he penned with his The Northman co-writer Sjón.
Aaron Taylor-Johnson (Nosferatu), Lily-Rose Depp (Nosferatu), Willem Dafoe (The Lighthouse), Ralph Ineson (The Witch), and Bodhi Rae Breathnach (Hamnet) star.
Robert Eggers and Sjón produce alongside Tim Bevan and Eric Fellner for Working Title. Maiden Voyage’s Chris Columbus and Eleanor Columbus are executive producing.
