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.
Chris Columbus (Gremlins – writer, Home Alone – director) is headed back into the director’s chair for Thursday Murder Club, Amblin’s upcoming feature film adaptation of the same-titled novel written by Richard Osman. Variety first reported the news this morning.
It’s not a horror movie, mind you, but rather a star-studded murder-mystery. Think Rian Johnson’s Knives Out… only this particular murder-mystery is set in a retirement community!
Variety details, “The book, released in 2020, tells the story of four septuagenarian friends who live in a retirement community and solve cold cases for fun. When a shady property developer is found dead, the four find themselves in the middle of their first live crime.”
Helen Mirren, Pierce Brosnan and Ben Kingsley are “being eyed” to lead the cast!
Richard Osman’s 2020 novel was such a hit that it launched a franchise. Follow-up The Man Who Died Twice followed in 2021, with The Bullet That Missed coming along in 2022. And then there was The Last Devil to Die in 2023, with a fifth book in the series expected in 2025.
