Primeval Movie News
Did I mention news about a Primeval movie? To be honest, I didn’t realize that there was a move afoot for a Primeval movie.
Back in May of 2009, it was reported that Warner Bros. acquired the screen rights to Primeval. Supposedly the plan back then was to move the action to the U.S..
Akiva Goldsman & Kerry Foster will be producing. Goldsman produced Jonah Hex, is working on a prequel to I am Legend and another project called Fair Game. If it ever gets off the ground, Goldsman will be behind the Lobo & Robotech movies, The Toxic Avenger and yet another version or movie of Fantastic Four.
Supposedly Tim Haines (Defying Gravity, and a slew of dinosaur TV projects) is writing his very first screenplay with co-writer Adrian Hodges (Primeval, Survivors).
It think it is still in the development stages, so nothing more concrete has come out about the project, but there ya have it.
