Rise of the 'bots

First it was the apes and now it's the robots! Seems like these days everything is rising up and looking to take humanity down: Deadline is reporting that 20th Century Fox and Dreamworks will collaborate on the adaptation of Daniel H. Wilson's novel, Robopocalypse.

The plan for the film, which is to be released on the 2013 July 4th weekend, is for Disney to handle distribution domestically while Fox will take over internationally.

Deadline describes the projects as "a Drew Goddard-scripted adaptation of the Daniel H. Wilson epic novel about the human race’s attempt to survive an apocalyptic robot uprising... Deadline broke the story that Spielberg was eyeing the novel as a directing vehicle, before he instead chose War Horse as the first film he directed for DreamWorks since Spielberg and Stacey Snider left Paramount and made a deal with Reliance and a distribution deal at Disney. We also revealed last October that he had committed to direct it. Doubleday published the book in June."
