Roger Christian Develops Stranded for Space Based Horror Fans: Concept Poster

5 April 2012 8:00 AM, PDT | 28 Days Later Analysis | See recent 28 Days Later Analysis news »

Roger Christian (Battlefield Earth) is ready to film in the genre of sci-fi once again. This time, Christian will be tackling aliens and the supernatural in the story for Stranded. A devastating meteor shower endangers a group of astronauts and events take a turn for the worse when a woman becomes pregnant with an alien baby. That is sure to bring on some morning sickness!

Now, the first concept poster for Stranded is here and this time the tagline offers three verbs: "germinate, contaminate, annihilate!" This is a sci-fi thriller which is apparent by the graphic. A spaceship looms in the darkness of space. Production on Stranded will begin in 2012 with a release date upcoming. Cast and crew details are below.

Release Date: 2013.

Director: Roger Christian.

Writer: Christian Piers Betley.

Cast: Amanda Crew, Kevin Dillon, Michael Ironside, Tricia Helfer, Nick Stahl, Brendan Fletcher, Peter Facinelli, and Luke Goss.

*being produced by Minds Eye Entertainment. »

Something Sinister Stranded in Space

4 April 2012 11:46 AM, PDT | DreadCentral.com | See recent Dread Central news »

It's been a long, long time since last we heard anything from Battlefield: Earth director Roger Christian (who's now in post on 13 Eerie), but he's back with a new project in orbit. Read on!

ShadowLocked recently caught up with Christian, who revealed the following about his next project, Stranded, which follows four isolated astronauts on board a bio-dome spacecraft who experience a ghostly intercession after a meteor storm, leading to paranoia, fear and death.

"[It's] quite scary. We don't have a creature," he explains. "Our alien entity, which it is, is born on board. This woman gets pregnant and gives birth in a few days. It's one of those weird things that happens very fast. The thing that's on board imitates one of the crew members and takes him over... Our familiar character becomes the monster."

Roger Christian talks zombies, Prometheus & Battlefield Earth

21 March 2012 6:32 AM, PDT | Shadowlocked | See recent Shadowlocked news »

In the fourth of the new Shadowlocked podcasts, we chat with our old friend Roger Christian - Oscar winning inventor of the look of Star Wars and Alien, and subsequently a director in his own right (he also helped out old friend and colleague George Lucas by being 2nd Ad on The Phantom Menace).

Additionally Alien art director Christian holds many of the secrets of Ridley Scott's much anticipated Prometheus 'Alien prequel', and he and I did at least get to discuss the recent trailers, the potential of a trilogy that goes off in an unexpected direction, and how Ridley Scott might be reliving the executive-strewn nightmare of 1978 in far happier circumstances, with a great deal more experience and power.

As usual, I'm moaning about the lack of xenomorphs.

Additionally the ever-busy Christian has just finished zombie movie 13 Eerie, and among a slate of financed projects he is »
