Wolfenstein Movie Held Up By Writers Strike
The script for the planned Writers' Guild of America [http://www.idsoftware.com/games/wolfenstein/rtcw/] strike has put the entire development process on hold.
Roger Avary, who's writing the script and also hopes to direct the film, told the Sci Fi Wire [http://www.scifi.com/scifiwire/index.php?category=0&id=45272], "(he) is almost done with the script and am proud of it, but everything as far as the production date and that kind of thing won't be decided until after this (is) over. And I fully support the strike."
Avary described the movie, based on id Software's [http://www.idsoftware.com] 2001 World War II-based horror FPS, as "a World War 2 old movie of guys who are out on a mission, but this one will have the addition of monsters and horror and a lot of craziness all mixed together. We will start it when it is the right time." He also said that he has researched the paranormal, the U.S. military and the Nazis as part of his preparation for the movie.
Avary's previous credits include writing credits on Pulp Fiction [http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0108399/], for which he won an Oscar for Best Original Screenplay along with Quentin Tarantino.
