Has ‘John Wick’ met his match in Eli Roth’s ‘Knock Knock’? Posted: 22 May 2015 12:03 AM PDT "John Wick" International Theatrical Poster Looks like John Wick has finally met his match. Just recently, Eli Roth (Hostel), a writer/director known for his horror productions, released a teaser trailer for an upcoming Keanu Reeves film simply titled Knock Knock, an updated version of Peter Traynor's Death Game (1977). In a nutshell, the flick is about a pair of femme fatales who wreak havoc on the life of a happily married man. Given Roth’s demented reputation, it’ll be interesting to see what he does with a thriller starring Reeves. Here’s the film’s partial official plot: Evan Webber (Reeves) is living the dream: a beautiful wife, two wonderful kids, and a stunning house. Things are going so well, Evan doesn't even mind spending Father's Day alone while the rest of his family heads out for a beach weekend. And then there's a knock on the door by two young women (Lorenza Izzo and Ana de Armas)… Enjoy Knock Knock’s clever teaser trailer, which comes to an abrupt end before you can figure out what’s going on. Stay tuned for its official theatrical release date. Updates: The 2nd trailer for Knock Knock is now available. Enjoy!

And they thought a ‘World War Z’ sequel would be ‘Impossible’ Posted: 21 May 2015 12:00 AM PDT "World War Z" Japanese Theatrical Poster Deadline reports that Paramount and Skydance have signed Juan Antonio Bayona (The Impossible) to direct a sequel to World War Z, with a script by Steven Knight (Locke). At this time, there’s no official word on the return of Brad Pitt. Deadline says “there’s no real road map for this yet and that will have to be solved on the page before anything else happens.” The original film was directed by Marc Forster (Quantum of Solace) and definitely had its share of production hell (over budget, massive reshoots, etc), but despite its problems, World War Z became both a critical and financial success. Updates: According to sources, the World War Z sequel has a release date set for Summer of 2017. No plot details have been unveiled, but according to scriptwriter Steven Knight, they’re approaching the sequel with a "clean slate".
