DAN'S   MOVIE   DIGEST

I s s u e   # 4 1

0 2   M a y   2 0 0 3

Director Steve Carr (Dr Dolittle) has signed on to direct Iron Fist, a 'Marvel' comic-book adaptation linked to Ray Park (Episode I's Darth Maul) as the lead. 'Artisan' is targeting a 2004 release date.

THE ABOMINABLE SNOWMAN

'Variety' reports that 'Emmett-Furla Films' has teamed up with producers Ilya Salkind and Gale Anne Hurd to develop The Abominable Snowman. Salkind (executive-producer on Superman) held the rights to the legend of a Himalayan ape-man creature sometimes referred to as a yeti.

BATMAN 5

'4Filmmakers.com' has listed Matt Damon (The Bourne Identity) as the star of Christopher Nolan's upcoming Batman movie. Is this true? Nobody knows for sure just yet.

GARFIELD

Chevy Chase will play a character called Dr Davis in the new live-action movie - obviously an in-joke to Garfield's creator Jim Davis.

LORD OF THE RINGS - THE RETURN OF THE KING

Canada's 'The Province' talked to composer Howard Shore, who has seen a rough-cut The Return of the King. Shore said: "I can tell you that having seen The Return of the King, it is a great film. It is amazing."

KNIGHT RIDER

Sci Fi Wire talked to David Hasselhoff who gave an update on the upcoming Knight Rider: The Movie and an upcoming series...

"Right now it's in this land of 'Which way are we going with it?'" Hasselhoff said in an interview. "I think for the film, we're going to go one way, and for the television series another way." Hasselhoff said that he hopes to have an acting role in both the film and the series. "I figure James Bond's about my age, so I could still be Michael Knight." No start date is announced for either project.

THE MATRIX RELOADED - IMAX

IMAX fans can enjoy The Matrix Reloaded in full massive-screen glory just a few weeks after its May release. Unlike Star Wars Episode II the movie will not have to be edited to fit the IMAX format. Even better is that the third part, Revolutions, will have a concurrent release with its 35mm twin - a first for the movie industry.

THE PHANTOM OF THE OPERA

Joel Schumacher spoke with 'IC Wales' about budget concerns and pressure adapting the hit musical into a movie: "You'd be surprised at how little money we're getting, but we'll try to make it work... you don't want to fail and there are so many people who love this musical and the closest I've ever got to a period film is Veronica Guerin, which is 1996! The notion of Paris in 1870 is pretty lush, pretty gorgeous."

Gerard Butler (Tomb Raider 2) has been offered the starring role of The Phantom by Schumacher, but has not decided whether to take the role because he is fielding other film offers - such as The Game of Their Lives.

Anne Hathaway (The Princess Diaries) and Emmy Rossum (Passionada) have emerged as the top choices to play the female lead, Christine.

Alan Cumming (X-Men 2's Nightcrawler) has revealed that he will also be starring in Schumacher's movie as the Theatre Manager. Cumming also reprises his role as Spy Kids' original villain Fegan Floop in a cameo for Spy Kids 3D: Game Over.

RESIDENT EVIL II

'The Hollywood Reporter' reports that Second Unit Director Alexander Witt will make his movie directing debut with Resident Evil 2, working from a script by the original's writer-director Paul W.S Anderson, who will now produce. Production begins this August in Toronto.

STAR WARS EPISODE III

The official Star Wars website confirmed that Episode III will further connect itself to events in the original Star Wars trilogy in "new and surprising ways". Familiar faces and places will return, including actor Peter Mayhew - who reprises his role as Chewbacca!

Mayhew said: "I'm delighted to return as Chewbacca. I think his re-appearance in this film is a fitting way to tie the whole saga together, especially for Wookie fans."

PETER PAN

'The Age' talked to Jason Isaacs (The Patriot) about the upcoming live-action adaptation of Peter Pan, in which he stars as Captain Hook & Mr. Darling.

Isaacs: "The versions we've seen before have never been what Barrie intended. It's not about a boy who never grew up at all. It's a rites-of-passage movie about a 12-year-old girl in Victorian London in a quite repressive household who is told that she has to grow up, and in those days there was no adolescence."

"Wendy is so traumatised here that she runs off to Neverland, and one reason you have the same actor playing Mr Darling and Captain Hook is that you never know if Neverland is a real place or one that Wendy's invented to work out what she's going to do about this growing-up business."

SUPERMAN

It appears that director McG (Charlie's Angels 2) is now circling the Superman project Brett Ratner recently abandoned over casting difficulties with the producers (some want a new face for Superman, some want a star-name). McG was one of the original contenders, but had to pull out because he was still committed to Angels 2.

X-MEN 2

'The Daily Telegraph' interviewed star Hugh Jackman about the possibility of more X-Men sequels. Jackman thought the franchise could continue indefinitely, saying: "They don't really have to rely on the existing format because there are so many characters in the pantheon of the comic-book series. The younger characters, which Wolverine mentors, could take up the mantle and do just as good a job. It is limitless and the characters could grow up with the fans."
