CONSTANTINE helmer to shoot Protosevich's I AM LEGEND'
Hey folks, Harry here... Did some research on this tidbit. Now, Mark Protosevich's I AM LEGEND script has been... kind of a thing of legend in its own right. I'd say for the better part of the last 8 years i've been tracking its development and progress around Hollywood. Arnold was attached forever, then with Ridley Scott, then rumors of Cameron, then there was Will Smith and Michael Bay, dozens of others in-between. There was a period where the script was developed so far away from Mark's original - that it was set to be a disaster of epic proportions, and then it got back on track with slight permutations of his original draft. The only problem with Mark's original script was how his ending was forced to be different from the actual Matheson ending - which is kinda the whole point of the damn thing - but then - Mark always wanted to stick to Matheson's ending too. Sigh. Well - recently I'd heard rumors that Ridley Scott was fishing again around these waters - but ultimately hung up his fishing gear to move on to other waters. This time, it looks like Warners is in serious talks with Francis Lawrence, based upon how high they are on his CONSTANTINE movie. Now, I hear Francis isn't signed yet, but that it's more or less just a formality at this point. All parties want this to work out. I just hope that Francis keeps Protosevich on the project - if that's at all possible, given he's off working on POSEIDEN ADVENTURE for Wolfgang Petersen.
Hey big guy,
I haven't seen anything on this, so I wanted to let the cat out of the bag.
Sophomore Director Francis Lawrence (Constantine (2005) is going to
helm "I Am Legend".
