Death Race

July 10, 2007 · Print This Article

The Scoop : A no-holds-barred, ultraviolent car race, set in 2020. This is the sequel to Death Race 2000 from 1975, that featured Sylvester Stallone as “Machine Gun Joe Viterbo”. A remake of the camp 1970s black comedy Death Race 2000 about a cross-country race in the point isn’t which contestant gets to the finish line first, but whom kills the most pedestrians along the way.

This sequel is being filmed in Montreal, and already has Jason Statham { The Brazilian Job , Collateral, Cellular } signed up to star in the film.

Release Date : 26 September 2008

Tom Cruise is going to be producing the movie. Death Race originally was set up at Paramount as a Cruise vehicle. The project was among those put into turnaround after the Sumner Redstone-Cruise imbroglio. Sources said that when it heard Race was free, Universal, spearheaded by David Linde, moved quickly to secure it.

    :) This could be a really cool movie, I wish Tom Cruise had no affiliation with it though. His Scientology input will destroy the film.

Got something to say?
