Could This Be a Reason to See the ‘Raid’ Remake?
We love Taylor Kitsch, even though he’s failed numerous times to become that summer superstar Hollywood wanted him to be (see John Carter and Battleship).
Thankfully, Tinseltown hasn’t given up on Timmy Riggins as he’s allegedly in talks to star in the second season of HBO’s “True Detective,” and now has been offered the lead in Screen Gems’ English-language remake of The Raid, reports TheWrap.
Patrick Hughes (The Expendables 3) is directing the action movie, which is gearing up for a January 2015 shoot. Coincidentally, that is when the second season of “True Detective” is slated to wrap filming, says the site.
Brad Ingelsby (“Run All Night”) wrote The Raid remake, which is based on the outstanding original 2011 movie written and directed by Gareth Evans. It followed an elite Indonesian SWAT that gets trapped inside a building run by a vicious gangster and his thugs.
Just two months after his daughter Ishana Night Shyamalan debuts on the big screen with horror movie The Watchers, M. Night Shyamalan is back with his new thriller Trap.
M. Night Shyamalan’s new thriller for Warner Bros. – the sixteenth movie in his Oscar-nominated career thus far – is headed to movie theaters nationwide on August 9, 2024.
Watch the official trailer below to begin a twisted new mystery-box experience, which features performances by rising music star Saleka Shyamalan as fictional pop star Lady Raven.
In the upcoming thriller starring Josh Hartnett, “A father and teen daughter attend a pop concert, where they realize they’re at the center of a dark and sinister event.”
As the official trailer for Trap reveals, the pop concert is actually an elaborate trap designed to catch The Butcher, a sadistic serial killer who has been evading authorities.
Hartnett had recently described the mysterious film as “very bizarre” and “very dark.”
According to IMDb, the cast for Trap also includes Hayley Mills, Marnie McPhail, Vanessa Smythe, Saleka Shyamalan, Scott Ian MacDougall, Kristi Woods, and Cali Lorella.
Trap is the first film Shyamalan has made under his new deal with Warner Bros., which has been described as a “multi-year first-look directing and producing agreement.”
The film is produced by Ashwin Rajan, Marc Bienstock and M. Night Shyamalan.
The executive producer is Steven Schneider.
