Update: First Cities Announced for Adam Green’s ‘Frozen’
Update: Click here for the first batch of theater listings! Get ready for February 5th when Adam Green’s awesome chiller Frozen (review) opens in limited theaters across the country. Green announced via Facebook the first cities that will host the Sundance selection. “I just saw an update on theaters for FROZEN next weekend. Theaters are still being added daily- but right now it’s got MULTIPLE screens and areas within Boston, New York, Los Angeles, Salt Lake City, Dallas, Denver, Philadelphia, Minneapolis, and Chicago. Start spreading the word and making your plans for next Friday and Saturday night! If you guys support it, it will come to a theater near you a week or so later.” It will also open in MANY screens in and around Toronto as well. Depending on how well it does, the flick could expand into more theater in the following weeks.
Keith C. Blackmore’s book series Mountain Man is headed to the screen, with Deadline reporting today that Joe Manganiello (“True Blood”) is on board to star in the film adaptation.
The actor will also produce the upcoming zombie movie.
“Mountain Man tells the story of Gus, a lonely post-apocalyptic survivor facing isolation and the ever-present specter of a zombie attack, who struggles with alcohol abuse and suicidal thoughts until he discovers another survivor, a captivating woman who poses another threat altogether.”
John Lee (False Positive) will direct Mountain Man from a script by Matt Deller.
“John is a brilliant creative mind. We’ve been looking for the right thing to do together since we filmed Pee Wee’s Big Holiday and it’s finally here,” 3:59’s Joe and Nick Manganiello told Deadline. “Very excited to get to work on such weird, wild project with him.”
Film Bridge International is launching sales on the project in Cannes.
Blackmore’s Mountain Man series features 7 books, the first one published in 2011.
