MTV NEWS Recently Spoke to film producer Joel Silver While he was promoting his latest movie,
Unknown. They then questioned him about the adaption of the DC Comic's title
Swamp Thing.
"I don’t know, there are rights issues with Swamp Thing," Silver told MTV News when asked if we'll ever see the 3-D "Swamp Thing" movie he hinted at back in August 2009. "I’m not sure if we could clear that up but we’re always working on something. We like the idea of making a 3-D version of that story, but it’s not something we can do right now."
Swamp Thing Currently has no Known director, screenwriter, or release date. Stay posted with
comicbookmovie any updates to its status
They of course followed with a question about the adaption of
Sgt. Rock, a movie that we have been promised several times over the years.
Sgt. Rock had even been on the fast track to theaters before its director Guy Ritchie bailed for the
Sherlock Holmes franchise. Sadly his answer was not very different from the
Swamp Thing One:
"We were driving down the road at one point, and then not," said Silver, summarizing the last few, on-again, off-again years of "Sgt. Rock" development. "Look, these things are there, and sometimes they come about, and sometimes they don’t, but it’s hard to talk about them until they’re real movies."
Francis Lawrence who directed
I Am Legend is currently attached to direct the adaption for
Sgt. Rock. Again Check with
comicbookmovie for any updates on the progress of the
Sgt. Rock movie.
