The Nutty Professor 3

Twilight Sells Out. Trade Roughage 11/18/08

Twilight has already sold out around 500 midnight shows for Thursday and at least 400 shows throughout the weekend. Thanks to the report from The Hollywood Reporter, I finally understand the appeal: apparently it’s a movie about an “interspecies love affair.”
It’s no coincidence that movie rights for another “vampyre” series of young adult novels has just been optioned. House of Night: Marked will be the link between Twilight and Harry Potter with its plot of pubescent bloodsuckers attending a special school just for their kind.
One-time documentarian Seth Gordon is apparently satisfied directing fiction for awhile. Following Four Christmases, he’s now set to helm a con job caper titled Suicide Squad. However, he’s still reportedly doing a fictional remake of his doc The King of Kong and producing a new doc titled Freakonomics.
A film described as Bill and Ted’s Excellent Adventure meets The Matrix is in the works at Warner Bros. The title, Control-Alt-Delete, might need to go, but otherwise the concept seems totally awesome. Now to get Keanu on board…
Got a great idea for The Nutty Professor 3? Universal and Imagine have put out an open call for writers.
