Production company 2000 AD, with the joint efforts of Rebellion and DNA Films (of such Danny Boyle fare as “Sunshine” and “28 Days Later”) announced on their website, that filming on a new production “Judge Dredd” will begin next year.
No word on Sly Stallone’s involvement yet, but I think we can safely assume we won’t get to hear him mumble “I am duh law” anytime soon. [via 2000 AD]
Arcana Studios is set to develop a film adaptation of “Paradox,” which was written by Christos Gage (Marvel Comics’ “Thunderbolts” & “Avengers: The Initiative,” Wildstorm Comics’ “Stormwatch: P.H.D.”) for Arcana Comics.
“Paradox”, which will be scripted by Gage and his wife, Ruth Fletcher Gage, tells the story of a police detective set in a world powered by magic. Sounds like a little bit of “Fringe” combined with some elements of “The Prestige,” perhaps.
Both Gages have worked together on “Law & Order: SVU.” Sean P. O’Reilly (Arcana) and Aaron L. Gilbert (Bron Management) are set to produce. [via Variety]
