Chow Yun-Fat, Texas Battle, Randall Duk Kim and Ernie Hudson. It will now be debuting the same day that Hannah Montana The Movie and Observe and Report are released in theaters.Summit Entertainment is looking to make an action thriller that is Indiana Jones crossed with Sherlock Holmes. Based loosely on the life of Harry Houdini and how he is portrayed in the 2006 book, The Secret Life of Houdini: The Making of America's First Superhero. The novel became known for insinuating that Harry Houdini acted as a spy for Britain and was asked to be an adviser to Czar Nicholas II's court in prerevolutionary Russia. It also portrayed the master escape artist and magician as a debunker of con artists who pretended to be spiritualists, leading to the controversial theory that Houdini's death was caused by the spiritual movement as payback. The studio is looking for writers to adapt the book with hopes that the recognition of Houdini's name will potentially launch a franchise.
Tony Scott and Mark Bomback are working on the script for the film "Unstoppable". Which Scott intends to direct for his next feature. The drama will involve an unmanned runaway train that is carrying a cargo of toxic chemicals. An engineer and his conductor find themselves in a race against time. Scott most recently completed a remake of "The Taking of Pelham 1, 2, 3," the Columbia Pictures drama that will be released June 12 starring Denzel Washington and John Travolta.
