Will it ever end? Comparisons to old movies that shouldn't ever be mentioned again? I wouldn't care if I ever heard the name of the movies Scream, Blair Witch Project and Sixth Sense ever again, I wish we could just bury them in the ground and light em' on fire. Len Wiseman (Underworld) comparing his next film to The Sixth Sense doesn't help one bit...
"Director Len Wiseman (Underworld) told SCI FI Wire that he and writing partner Danny McBride are developing Black Chapter, a supernatural spy movie, for Disney. McBride and Wiseman, with colleague Kevin Grevioux, also developed the vampire vs. werewolf movie Underworld, which opens Sept. 19."
"We're doing a movie called Black Chapter, which in its pitch was The Sixth Sense meets La Femme Nikita," Wiseman said in an interview at the recent Comic-Con International in San Diego. "When you get down to it, it's really f--king cool. It's the CIA using ethereal agents. ... I've never seen a ghost movie done as a slick action film. There's thrillers. There's comedies. There's horror. Never mixing ghosts with an adrenaline-full, kick-ass action movie."
"Wiseman said that no one's cast, though he'd love to sign his Underworld star (and real-life fiancee) Kate Beckinsale. "Nobody yet," he said. "Kate's way too expensive. I'm trying to talk to her about it. I'm seeing what I can do. It's been a process I've been working on for a couple months. It's with Disney. We're writing it right now."
