| Tsui Hark’s ‘Journey to the West’ sequel begins… Posted: 24 Sep 2015 09:29 AM PDT  "Journey to the West" Japanese Theatrical Poster Stephen Chow (Shaolin Soccer) and Tsui Hark (Young Detective Dee: Rise of the Sea Dragon) are currently collaborating on a sequel to Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons. This time around, Hark will take over directing duties, while Chow will produce. Shu Qi, Wen Zhang, and Huang Bo will return for the sequel. Joining them this time around is Vicky Zhao (14 Blades). The original, which was directed by Chow (read Paul Bramhall’s review), centered on Tang Sanzang, a Buddhist trying to protect a village from three demons, his emerging feelings for Miss Duan, the demon hunter who helps him repeatedly, and Sanzang’s transformative encounter with the Monkey King. Updates: According to HKSAR, Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons 2 has begun production. The film is scheduled to be released in 2016. |
| Ridley Scott’s ‘Prometheus 2’ now titled ‘Alien: Paradise Lost’ Posted: 24 Sep 2015 09:25 AM PDT  "Prometheus" Japanese Theatrical Poster Whether Ridley Scott’s Prometheus (2012) was an Alien (1979) spin-off, prequel – or a little of both – there’s no question that it ties to the Alien franchise. A sequel, simply titled Paradise, has been in development for a couple of years (Noomi Rapace and Michael Fassbender are returning), but just today, in an interview with Scott himself, the film’s new title is apparently Alien: Paradise Lost. Scott obviously enjoys stirring up public speculation – or – could it be that he’s getting a head start to paint a true Alien(s) connection before someone else *cough* gets their hands on his creation? Expect Alien: Paradise Lost in 2017. Until then, we’ll fill you in on any developments. |
