Correction about DESPERATION

Published at:  Jul 21, 1999 3:39:51 AM CDT

Hey folks, Harry here. Like I said yesterday about that DESPERATION casting rumors, they were NOT confirmed and I was putting out the latest I had heard. However, today I can tell you that this project seems unfortunately to be languishing at NEW LINE at the moment, and has been since last year. They are nowhere near casting or even thinking about it. I believe Moriarty has read the script because the other night he told me he really liked the script and said that it was by far the best that Mick Garris has had a chance to direct. I wonder what the hold up is.... Oh well...

    Desperate 4 desperation

    by greenmile79

    Hey. The book by SK was kickin', so why isn't this movie being made? I mean, with all of the recent horror/thriller movies being released later this summer, why the slow production for Desperation? I think it will be a great movie, but...

    1. DO NOT cast Collie, the crazy, killer, freaked out cop as Nolte or Walken. If this happens, the movie will bomb. I mean for heavens' sake, Collie is a menacing, hulk of evil... cast Clancy Brown instead!
    2. ILM has absolutely got to be involved with this one. Talk about all of the TAK effects!

    In summary, I just gotta say that I highly recommend this book for reading material until the movie goes into production, and I can only hope that perhaps The Green Mile, another SK book-turned-movie will create enough good buzz about SK to get this made. Until then, I eagerly await the casting!!!
