HALLOWEEN 3D now delayed



h214
Looks like those who were worried about a the third installment in Rob Zombie's Halloween series was being rushed will now be able to breathe a sigh of relief, as Deadline Hollywood reports that production has halted on the film. The script (written by Todd Farmer) was turned in last week and production was to begin in November and finish in January.

However, it seems that the Weinsteins have come to their senses and have decided to start the project after director Patrick Lussier's schedule clears up, as he has another film to work on in the beginning of next year, hence the rushed production start. Halloween 3D originally had an October 2010 theatrical release planned, but after this delay it's likely to be pushed to another date.

David Cronenberg returns to THE FLY



thefly.jpg
A remake of The Fly isn't anything new, as it has been talked about for nearly a decade now, but news that David Cronenberg would return to remake the film again (after already doing so with his 1986 film version) does come as a surprise.

THR reports that Cronenberg is developing the remake with Fox, and will script and potentially direct the pic. Back in 2003 Hack/Slash writer Todd Lincoln was supposed to direct a potential remake, but plans fell through. It was rumored that in his version the fly would've actually flown around this time. Hopefully that's not the case with this remake.
