ABOVE: IGN's teaser for 7500, a new suspense piece from Takashi Shimizu - director of THE GRUDGE and its sequel. This one stars Jamie Chung (SUCKER PUNCH), Leslie Bibb (the first two IRON MAN movies and ZOOKEEPER), Amy Smart (the CRANK movies and SCRUBS), and the extremely awesome Ryan Kwanten (so hilarious and touching as Jason Stackhouse in HBO's TRUE BLOOD). This should be in theaters late Summer - Augustish I believe.
I love the vibe here - but having recently seen George Miller's dazzling mini-epic NIGHTMARE AT 20, 000 feet (a segment of 1983's TWILIGHT ZONE movie), I have to wonder if anyone will ever equal or surpass that level of frenzied, claustrophobic, stuck-in-a-plane fucked-upness. Maybe 7500 will do just that? SNAKES ON A PLANE sure didn't...
