This is only some of the news from the start of San Diego Comic-Con. Really this is the stuff that caught my eye and I felt was worth a quick post. More news to come as SDCC continues!!!
- Posters for The Cabin in the Woods. Great posters laughing at horror films. 
- First footage of Kick-Ass was screened and the crowd was impressed.
- Milla Jovovich will reprise her role in another Resident Evil film titled Resident Evil: Afterlife. It is being shot in 3D and could be the start of another trilogy. The budget will be the bigger than any of the previous films.
- The Losers poster was released, check below.
- No word if Gore Verbinski will return to direct, but a Pirates of the Caribbean is going to start shooting soon with the hope of a early 2011 release. Captain Jack (Johnny Depp) will be back! The producers want to scale down the movie but still plan on making it into another trilogy.
- Sounds like Wanted 2 is officially a go. The Timur Bekmambetov sequel could be starting pre-production in about 8-10 weeks. James McAvoy will be back as Wesley Gibson.
- Last year at SDCC, the surprise of the show was the announcement of Tron 2 with a rough trailer. This year we get a full clip with the official name, Tron Legacy which is to be released in 2010. Here is the clip below.
- The biggest news (which has been partially back tracked) was by Gary Oldman. During a panel for the Hughes Brothers new film The Book of Eli, Oldman answered a question about when the sequel to The Dark Knight would begin shooting. Shockingly he responded "We start shooting next year. You didn't hear that from me." Since that time, in an interview with Quint from Ain't It Cool News Oldman said "well, I'm sure they want to do another one... it might 2 or 3 years..." This could mean he was telling a lie or the studios gave him an earful for dropping the news.
Really excited if the last news bit is true! Tron looks awesome! What of the news has you most excited?
