Good news for all shark-lovers out there.
David R. Ellis has signed on to direct a film titled
Shark Night 3D. What a mix, huh? See, sharks, and 3D, kind of spooky?
No wonder they already describe this upcoming project as “
Jaws for the 3D Generation”. It could be interesting, so check the rest of the report.
Looks like Ellis is a big fan of this kind of adventures, since we all remember his movies
Snakes on a Plane and
The Final Destination.
So, now we have the new adventure, and Ellis will shoot Shark Night 3D this summer in Louisiana with a $28 million budget.
The whole thing will be produced by Mike Fleiss, Chris Briggs and Lynette Howell, and they are exactly those who hope this will be like a JAWS film but in 3D.
The screenplay is written by
Jesse Studenberg and
Will Hayes, and the film's animatronic sharks will be created by
Walt Conti, the guy/shop responsible for the sharks in
Deep Blue Sea, as well the supersized snake in
Anaconda.
We have no doubt in their work, since we all know that Ellis worked as a second unit director on the latter, another shark movie, as well as waterbound flicks like
The Perfect Storm, Sphere, Waterworld and
Master and Commander.
So, you must admit that we're dealing with quite interesting animal-obsessed team here! Although, we must add that the title could be little more interesting as well. But we guess all shark-fans don't mind this kind of details, right?
At the end of this report, we could mention that this movie comes to theaters in 2012.
As you see, we still dont have some big information about this upcoming project, but we're definitely signed in for
Shark Night, so don't worry, we'll be back soon!
