Neil Marshall Writing World War 2 Alien Invasion Flick
During an interview with Live for Films, The Descent, Dog Soldiers, Doomsday and Centurion director Neil Marshall revealed a screenplay he’s currently working on, while also “chasing about 12 various projects.”
When asked for details on the script, the seasoned UK director explained that “It’s a World War 2 alien invasion story,” before being interrupted by the ecstatic fan who literally asks Marshall if he just scored a scoop. Unfortunately, the “reporter” was much too excited about his “scoop” that he never presses on for more details.
Marshall is also producing The Haunted, Axelle Carolyn’s directorial debut from her own screenplay.

If you want to watch a fun movie, watch a Ryuhei Kitamura movie. Whether it’s 2000’s Versus, 2004’s Godzilla: Final Wars, 2008’s The Midnight Meat Train or 2022’s underseen The Price We Pay, Kitamura always knows how to deliver a wild and crazy good time.
Up next from Ryuhei Kitamura? Deadline reports that he’ll be directing Thrill Ride, which sounds a bit like the best parts of Final Destination 3… expanded into a feature film!
Deadline details, “the English-language film will tell the story of a group of people, including two young women, who are trapped upside down on a roller coaster taken over by a mysterious saboteur threatening to drop them all one-by-one to their deaths.”
Film Bridge International is launching the project for sales ahead of the Cannes market.
Chad Law and Christopher Jolley wrote the screenplay.
“Thrill Ride is exactly the type of high-concept based thriller that our customers are looking for in the marketplace,” said Film Bridge’s Ellen Wander and Jordan Dykstra. “With Ryuhei at the helm, we know his vision and execution will deliver thrills of the highest quality.”
“As a hardcore rollercoaster fan since I was young, I immediately fell in love with this script filled with suspense, action, crazy ups and downs, turns, loops, and corkscrews at maximum speed,” adds Kitamura. “I can’t wait to get on a ride and bring life to the wildest rollercoaster imaginable.”
We’re already seated. Stay tuned for more on Thrill Ride as we learn it.
