BioShock Movie Loses Another Director
The BioShock feature film has lost its second director and appears firmly stuck in the goo of pre-production.
Take-Two Interactive signed a deal to do a BioShock feature film almost four full years [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/news/view/83749-Take-Two-Signs-BioShock-Movie-Deal] ago and while that may not be a terribly great span in the world of the Hollywood film industry, it is an awfully long time for almost nothing to happen. Which I suppose isn't actually the case for the BioShock movie, because something has happened: It's now lost its second high profile director.
Juan Carlos Fresnadillo, the Indiewire [http://www.amazon.com/28-Weeks-Later-Widescreen-Edition/dp/B000TJBN80/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1332780511&sr=8-2]. "Right now it's on hold. The studio and the videogame company, they have to reach some kind of agreement about the budget and the rating."
For entirely new setting [http://www.amazon.com/BioShock-Xbox-360/dp/B000VKC6LU/ref=sr_1_5?ie=UTF8&qid=1332780601&sr=8-5], rendering the film, at least as it was originally envisioned, increasingly less relevant and able to capitalize on the excitement generated by the game. It may yet happen but at this point, I sure wouldn't hold my breath.
