Is Vin Diesel Going To Be The Final Witch Hunter?

Vin Diesel is circling The Last Witch Hunter, a film in development over at Lionsgate/Summit. I hesitated to report this one as The Wrap has had a spotty history as of late with their genre reporting, but when producer Adam Goldworm re-tweeted this bit of news, it gave the report a bit of weight.

• Breck Eisner (The Crazies) is in line to direct from a script by Cory Goodman (Priest).
• Goldworm is executive producing the film and Emmet/Furla Films is producing.
• The story concerns a witch hunter - the last of his kind - who must stop a group of witches and warlocks from reproducing.

Vin Diesel, who recently wrapped, Riddick is now shooting Fast 6.

"SAW" could be about to get a reboot

If you are Lions-gate and you have the Saw series on your hands then it looks like eight years is more than long enough to go back for a remake.


If you thought that seven Saw films were not enough then you are in luck, as Bloody Disgusting reports that Jigsaw & Co. are set for a reboot. The negotiations are still in their infancy, but Saw will be back , slash and torment us all over again.



I was a massive fan of the original and thought that it was a worthy entry into the canon of great horror movies. Plus it’s $100 million at the box office was an impressive feat. I’m also aware that the horror genre is one of the most lucrative in the business, as they are relatively cheap to make, you don’t need a big star to carry them and they appeal to a wide audience. Surely though, there are more creative ideas floating around Hollywood than remaking a movie that’s less than a decade old

Marvel Is Getting Daredevil Back?

Just after the fresh news that Marvel Studios might be welcoming home both Silver Surfer and Galactus, a Fox shaped spanner has been thrown into the works, hinting at the possibility that instead, the blind lawyer superhero will be making a Marvel comeback.
If you’ve been waiting, hoping and wishing for Marvel to get their hands back on the rights of some of the properties they had sold away in the past, then today is your lucky day. No, they’re not getting back Spider-Man or the X-Men, but Daredevil could be in play… Which means the red dude could be making an appearance in The Avengers 2 and — WOAH! — even getting his own franchise.
Norrin Radd, aka Silver Surfer, and Galan, aka Galactus were handed over to Fox a while back. Recently, the word on the grapevine has been that Fox may be returning these tormented and terrifying super villains to Marvel. According to Deadline, however, Fox is now more concerned about its Fantastic Four movie than it is about a Daredevil reboot, which means that Marvel may get Daredevil back in the fold.
This turn in events for Marvel could be a blessing in disguise. It’s not that we’re not excited to see the two villains appear in Josh Trank’s (Chronicle) take on the Fantastic Four, but we’re thinking that Daredevil being handed back to 20th Century Fox is very big news indeed. As he’s a superhero, rather than super villain, it would give Marvel much more power to play around with the character and his future on-screen endeavors.

Fox had been trying to get something started with a Daredevil reboot for some time now, ever since the god-awful Ben Affleck and Mark Steven Johnson damaged the property with their sub-standard 2003 movie. But it looks like Fox’s focus is now steadily fixed on The Fantastic Four. So, could this mean that we also see the Silver Surfer or Galactus could be popping up again with Stan Lee’s fantastic quartet? What are your thoughts on the character crossovers? Would you rather see Marvel reclaim the rights to Daredevil? Will Fox do either character comic book justice? Does it even matter, as long as Ben Affleck never rears his ugly superhero head again?
