Catherine Hardwicke Tapped For Big Screen Adaptation Of Sci-Fi Bestseller 'Age of Miracles'
3 April 2013 3:26 PM, PDT | The Playlist | See recent The Playlist news »
After kicking off the "Twilight" franchise and promptly being replaced by an array of different (and, it should be noted, male) directors, director Catherine Hardwicke has been somewhat adrift. She did a decidedly "Twilight"-ish take on "Red Riding Hood" for Warner Bros. before the fairy tale craze really bloomed and just completed a contemporary thriller called "Plush" that she co-wrote. But now she's headed back to the bestseller list, with an adaptation of Karen Thompson Walker's buzzy debut novel "The Age of Miracles" for River Road Entertainment. The adaptation was written by "Hanna" scribe Seth Lochhead and will be produced by River Road's founder Bill Pohlad. Published last summer, "The Age of Miracles" (which was named one of the best books of the year by BookPage, Publishers Weekly, Booklist and, most importantly, O: The Oprah Magazine) is an apocalyptic novel with an ingenious twist: it's told from the »

Catherine Hardwicke Bids for a Comeback with 'Age of Miracles'
3 April 2013 1:10 PM, PDT | Thompson on Hollywood | See recent Thompson on Hollywood news »
When director Gary Ross opted not to continue with the "Hunger Games" franchise--whether by asking for too much time or money or both-- no one sent his face around the web with bold-lettered "fired!" or with a big red X over it. But when Summit moved on from Catherine Hardwicke after the successful launch of the "Twilight" franchise, she was treated as someone who had been unceremoniously dumped. Then the talented production designer-turned-director director of "thirteen" and "Lords of Dogtown" followed her "Twilight" triumph--remember, she's the one who set the tone for the entire series and arguably directed the most successful one by casting Rob Pattinson and Kristen Stewart--with the-rushed, ill-conceived "Red Riding Hood." (I interviewed her here.) In need of the right opportunity to hit another one out of the park, Hardwicke is set to direct the romantic dystopian thriller, "The Age of Miracles," based on Karen Thompson Walker’s bestselling debut novel. »

Ed Solomon To Rewrite Colossus Remake, Starring Will Smith
16 March 2013 8:08 AM, PDT | Filmofilia | See recent Filmofilia news »
One minor classic, a worthwhile flick that arrived pre-Spielberg & Lucas blockbuster territory, is certainly the 1970 sci-fi film Colossus: The Forbin Project. This little sweethart is now seeing new life with a new screenwriter. Ed Solomon (Men in Black) set to rewrite the script of Colossus, which has Will Smith attached to headline. This means that Solomon will once again team on a Smith-starrer. Based on a book by D.F. Jones, the original film was the forerunner to the Terminator flicks and presents an all too believable depiction of the rise of the machines. The U.S. and U.S.S.R. put their defensive networks into the...

'Hanna' Scribe Tackling Colossal 'Shadow of the Colossus' Video Game Adaptation for Sony
10 January 2013 2:30 PM, PST | GetTheBigPicture.net | See recent Get The Big Picture news »
Whoa.
Following the news that a Call of Duty movie adaptation had been canceled due to fearing the fan reaction, a cult classic game has gained new ground in Hollywood. Though fans of the Playstation 2 game Shadow of the Colossus are less in number, their fervor can be just as large if the forthcoming film pulls a Bloodrayne. Nontheless, Seth Lochhead, co-writer of Hanna, has been attached to pen the script of the large-scale adaptation. »

'Hanna' Co-Writer Seth Lochhead To Pen Josh Trank's 'Shadow of Colossus'
9 January 2013 7:23 AM, PST | The Playlist | See recent The Playlist news »
When word came out early last summer that Sony was going ahead with an adaptation of the video game “Shadow of the Colossus,” it was perplexing to say the least. Many wondered just how they would go about pulling it off. Now THR reports that Seth Lochhead, who co-wrote the Joe Wright film “Hanna,” will be working on the script. “Chronicle” director Josh Trank is still attached to direct. Sony has been trying to get this off the ground for the past few years, and it finally looks like things are picking up. That said, considering Trank already has a spring 2015 release date set for his "Fantastic Four" reboot, one can only imagine that 'Colossus' is still a bit of a way off. For those who are unfamiliar with the game, "Shadow of the Colossus" follows a young man named Wander who has to slay sixteen massive creatures in order »

Kealan O’Rourke to Write and Direct The Houdini Box Adaptation; Hanna Scribe to Pen Shadow Of The Colossus
8 January 2013 6:32 PM, PST | Collider.com | See recent Collider.com news »
We’ve got news concerning two upcoming adaptations to share this evening. First up, Variety reports that Chernin Entertainment has set Kealan O’Rourke to write and direct an adaptation of the young adult novel The Houdini Box. Written by Hugo Cabret author Brian Selznick, the story centers on a young boy who idolizes the titular magician, meets him by chance, and then receives an invitation to go to Houdini’s house where he learns that the magician has recently died and left the young boy a mysterious box. O'Rourke's experience is primarily with short films, but he’s currently developing his short The Boy in the Bubble as an animated feature and is set to write and direct an animated adaptation of the graphic novel Bolivar. No word on how soon Houdini Box will come to fruition, but it’s one of a few Houdini-centered projects in development at the moment. »

Shadow Of Colossus to be Penned by Hanna’s Seth Lochhead; Josh Trank Attached to Direct
8 January 2013 5:04 PM, PST | Filmofilia | See recent Filmofilia news »
Seth Lochhead, the Canadian-born scriptwriter who co-wrote the action film Hanna, has been ‘dibbed’ to work on Shadow of the Colossus, Sony’s adaptation of the popular PlayStation 2 video game.
Josh Trank is attached to direct the project and is onboard since May 2012, after getting into spotlight because of his hit sci-fi ‘home-made’ flick, Chronicle. He will also oversee the writing of the script. Justin Marks wrote an early draft of the script when the project was initially set up, back in 2009.
The game’s story follows a young man named Wander, who, riding his stallion Argo, travels a world defeating 16 colossal beings in order to resurrect a girl named Mono.
Lochhead has The Governess, a top secret project being produced by Michael Bay, set up at Warner Bros. and has written an adaptation of sci-fi novel The Age of Miracles for Bill Pohlad’s River Road Entertainment.

Hanna Writer Enters Josh Trank’s Shadow of the Colossus
8 January 2013 9:22 AM, PST | Beyond Hollywood | See recent Beyond Hollywood news »
Looks like former “Chronicle” director Josh Trank’s “Shadow of the Colossus”, his upcoming live-action adaptation of the Playstation 2 videogame of the same name, is moving along, with news that the production has hired a writer. Seth Lochhead, who co-scripted the Joe Wright spy/actioner “Hanna”, has boarded “Shadow”. He will be working with Trank on the script and will rewrite an original draft by Justin Marks, who at one point in time, was the go-to guy for just about every geek project percolating in Hollywood. (Marks is also the man who gave us the award-winning “Street Fighter: The Legend of Chun-Li”. Here’s hoping Trank and Lochhead doesn’t ruin Marks’ genius script.) I have no idea what “Shadow of the Colossus” is all about, but according to THR, the game revolves around a character name Wander, “who, riding his trusty steed Argo, travels a world defeating 16 colossal beings »

'Hanna' Screenwriter Joins 'Shadow of the Colossus' Adaptation
8 January 2013 9:20 AM, PST | MTV Multiplayer | See recent MTV Multiplayer news »
According to The Hollywood Reporter, screenwriter Seth Lochhead was hired by Sony to work with "Chronicle" director Josh Trank to bring "Shadow of the Colossus" to the big screen.
Based solely on "Hanna," the offbeat, fairy tale-infused teen assassin movie from 2011, it's hard to get a bead on what Lochhead will be bringing to "Shadow of the Colossus," or indeed what Sony is looking for from him here. While "Hanna's" very deliberate Grimm hitgirl story could be a little on the nose at time, it was certainly a clever reworking of the "genetically-engineered-assassin-seeks-answers" plot. How much of that comes down to director Joe Wright remains to be seen (not a knock against Lochhead, but a lot of "Hanna" was about its style and execution).
"Chronicle" director Josh Trank is still onboard to direct and provide supervision of the script, whose current synopsis sees young adventurer Wander and his horse Argo wandering the land, »

Shadow Of The Colossus Movie Has A New Screenwriter
8 January 2013 7:00 AM, PST | GeekTyrant | See recent GeekTyrant news »
Hanna screenwriter Seth Lochhead has been hired to write the big screen adaptation of Sony Pictures' Shadow of the Colossus for Chronicle director Josh Trank. The first draft of the script was written by Justin Marks back in 2009, and Trank will oversee the screenplay re-write.
This movie has the potential to be epically huge, and I can't wait to see how it turns out. I loved playing the video game that the movie is based on, and I hope these guys can pull some crazy cool awesomeness while turning it into a feature film. Here's a run down of the story for those of you not familiar with it...
The protagonist is a young man who thinks his lover has died. Desperate to bring her back, he heads into a forbidden land, and summons a demon who can wake the dead. The price for bringing back his girl: slay 16 colossi that dominate this mystical place. »
