Christmas Spirit: Frank Miller's Latest to Arrive Early | Movie News | 5/7/2008
The Christmas Day movie slate just got a little fuller. According to the Hollywood Reporter, Lionsgate has moved its adaptation of The Spirit, starring Samuel L. Jackson and Scarlett Johansson, up to a Dec. 25 release date. Written and directed by Frank Miller (Sin City, 300) the flick is based on the comic-book series created by the late Will Eisner, and was originally set to bow Jan. 16, 2009.Producers said fans at last month's Comic-Con confirmed their feeling that an earlier release of the "irresistable piece of entertainment" would be prudent. The film (which with Miller at the helm is likely to be quite gritty) will compete against family fare (Disney's Bedtime Stories) and the romantic comedy Marley and Me.Do you plan to get in The Spirit this holiday season? — Adam BryantMore Movie News:• Juno's Ellen Page to Take in Some Eyre• Jonas Brothers Concert Pic Goes 3-D• WATCH VIDEO: The New Dark Knight Trailer• Sexy Director Speaks on Rumored Death in... read more
