This isn't so much of a Sin City 2 update as it is a Robert Rodriguez update, but you will see why it's newsworthy after I give thanks to /Film for the heads up...
Last month word broke that Robert Rodriguez was involved in a mystery project called Nerverackers, set up at Dimension with an announced release date of April 16th 2010. We had no further information about the project, until now. Variety confirms that Rodriguez will write and direct the futuristic thriller which follows “a character named Joe Tezca who is part of an elite unit dispatched to quell a crime wave in a theoretically perfect future society” in the year 2085.
2 Things...
- Rodriguez is a great effects guy, or at least for a budget, but here's to the film looking more like a futuristic, more high tech version of Planet Terror, visually, than Spy Kids...
- This all but knocks him out of the Sin City 2 directors chair, along with kicking his Predator reboot and his much hyped Machete trilogy to the curb. Or at least for now. A while back it was reported that Sin City 2 was written, and with Frank Miller's recent attempts at directing, look for him to maybe take the seat. Not that I want this to happen, but it's looking more like it will be the case...
Go see something good!
