Paul Cornell’s Saucer Country is heading to TV. Get a ton of new looks at Daredevil: Born Again season 2 before it returns next week. Plus, one more fresh glimpse of Invincible season 4. Spoilers, assemble!
Forbidden Fruits
In a new interview with Bloody-Disgusting, Forbidden Fruits director Meredith Alloway discussed adding “memorable kills” to the original play by Lily Houghton its based on.
There were no deaths in the play. I think the highest stakes are that the girls working at the store, basically, one of them steals a baby pink thong, and it starts a mutiny. It’s hilarious. It’s hilarious.
When I read Lily Houghton’s play, Of the Women Came the Beginning of Sin and Through Her We All Die, I got to get the whole title out, what I was drawn to, and I think you of all people will understand that we’ve kind of been in a movement of horror directed by women that is revenge movies, for the most part. I love that. I think that we needed to go through that phase where I could think of so many movies that feature revenge in relation to a man. It’s still in relation to a guy.
When I read this play, I was like, ‘There’s no relation to any men.‘ There’s Norman in the play. I believe he’s the only man in the play, and he’s also a character in the film. I was like, ‘This feels radical. This feels like something that I could spend the next couple of years of my life exploring.’
When I met with Lily, I was like, ‘What if we take how violent female relationships can feel, how intense, dark, and beautiful female breakups can feel, and what if we use body horror to sort of elevate it?‘ So that was, I think, the avenue that was the most interesting part to me.
Ready Or Not 2: Here I Come
The cast and crew of Ready Or Not 2 discuss how they achieved the film’s trailblazing “human explosions” in a new featurette.
Scary Movie 6
The latest TV spot for Scary Movie 6 shares more of its Sinners parody.
Saucer Country
According to Deadline, Hamzah Jamjoom and Alberto Lopez have optioned the rights to a TV series based on Paul Cornell’s 2012 comic book Saucer Country at Plot Point 1 Productions. The series’ concerns Arcadia Alvarado, “the Hispanic Governor of New Mexico, whose campaign for the U.S. presidency is derailed when she claims she was abducted by aliens. What begins as a political scandal quickly escalates into a high-stakes narrative of power and secrecy at the highest levels of government, blending smart science fiction with tense political drama in the tradition of The X-Files and The West Wing.”
Hitman
Speaking with The Direct at SXSW, Derek Kolstad confirmed Hulu’s planned TV series based on the Hitman video game franchise is no longer moving forward.
It’s dead in the water. No…It’s a little bit of a dagger in the chest. Who knows nowadays, but it’s dead in the water. But, man, I love that thing, because I love that game and I love that character. But the problem is, I can write a screenplay, but no one’s going to go out and buy the screenplay. You’ve got to make the movie, you’ve got to make the show. But nothing’s happening with that man, sadly.
Booster Gold
Following his rumored departure, writer Paul Jenkins took to Threads to state a Booster Gold TV series “is still in the pipeline,” though declined to comment on his continued involvement.
As far as I know it’s still in the pipeline.
