more production trouble
It seems like this movie has been in developement forever. Just days after test footage was leaked, there are reports of problems with the film. Just parking this link here given the tumultuous production this film's had and our inevitable back-tracking that will occur in months to come. —Scott (talk) 02:18, 21 February 2008 (UTC)
Hollywood Reporter
The Hollywood Reporter page says it was posted on May 4, 2006. That's a mistake, right? I'm assuming that was just posted last week, in 2007. -- Danny (talk) 22:32, 11 May 2007 (UTC)
- No, that information has been out there for over a year now. [1] [2] [3] -- Brad D. (talk) 22:45, 11 May 2007 (UTC)
- We're not at all sure if it's still current, to be honest. That's why I unlinked the names for now (and deleted Forest Whitaker). The only sources I've found just regurgitate the same news blip (and oddly, IMDb has removed Benicio Del Toro's name). I found only one more recent item about the film, which mentioned a couple of suit performers, but parroted the same old re the voices who had been signed. Signed is the operative word. Since the release date is currently October 2008, hopefully Henson or someone will release some kind of update as things get closer. Right now, the only participant who has been undeniably verified is Catherine Keener, not least because hers is an on-camera role (and thus harder to recast at the last minute, or have the character's lines cut out entirely, which happens quite often with animated features and happened with The Adventures of Pinocchio- in the trailer, Wallace Shawn voices the cricket, but the movie used David Doyle). -- Andrew Leal (talk) 22:53, 11 May 2007 (UTC)
- Oh, okay. We might want to put that info in the article page -- not making a big deal about what we don't know, but just to say that some of the info is a year old. Since Henson's involved, it probably won't ever get made anyway. Which is too bad, cause I'd love to have Dave Eggers and Catherine Keener on the wiki. -- Danny (talk) 01:57, 12 May 2007 (UTC)
